I've added a QA warning to autotools.eclass so that now using its functions outside of src_unpack throws is reported to the users (and thus to the developers to fix it). I'm filing bugs for the packages I can easily find being doing this through a simple grep on the tree. If you fixed the issue in the last version of an ebuild and I still opened this bug, please don't close it until you removed that ebuild from the tree. Thanks for the cooperation.
Ok, thanks. @C++ Team: This package has a dead upstream and a broken SRC_URI. And what is this package doing in sys-libs anyway???
@games team: It would be nice if we could get rid of this package since its dead upstream. You guys have the only package that depends on it: games-server/monopd. Is there any reason we can't mask and get rid of both?
monopd is the only option for a server for gtkatlantic and atlantic as far as I know. I don't see monopd going away any time soon.

As we are the only two looking at anything for the cpp herd...
In the mean time that you both decide what to do with this (which certainly doesn't look in its place within sys-libs), I've fixed this bug at least.
