as an accusation that distros, in this case
Gentoo, are being cavalier about security.
This attitude of "Gentoo is being cavalier about security" is
disproportionately worse than the average user interaction and, as has
been noted, is the reason why FOSS maintainers suffer burnout.
It has nothing to do with bringing up concerns. It has everything to do
with "if you don't agree with me you're being cavalier about MY security
as a Gentoo user".
Seriously. Please learn to bring up suggestions as suggestions, not as
demands. It makes all the difference in the world.

lack of DESTDIR support would equal a failed src_install rather than a

Mainly motivated by some upstream work I did with dev-python/scipy,
which has some ancient code that will never be updated to work with LTO,
and some nice new code that works great.
The first patch is a nice improvement on its own. The second one makes
limited sense without the third one.
