No, you are working around the symptoms. To my knowledge there are no
rules which enforce the namespace to use for ports tunables and pushing
monster patchsets into GNATS once in a while will not change this. That
is the problem I try to address. That only a minor amount of ports will
actually be patched (as recently seen with CONFLICTS) is another issue.
