net-mail/swaks should probably have the amd64 keyword spec'd in ebuilds. It's a perl script application and all required perl modules are acceptable for the amd64 platform, so there's no reason amd64 shouldn't be included in the ebuild KEYWORDS for swaks, too, going forward. I added it manually and swaks works just fine.
Jakub, this isn't an "enhancement" issue if one is trying to emerge swaks on a 64 bit server. The ebuild won't run - period - and complains of a "missing keyword". The problem is easily fixed, so hopefully it'll be addressed in the next revision in any case. I've noted this as an AMD64 hardware platform issue (which it should have been in the 1st place) and reset the severity to minor, since the ebuild can be manually edited to allow swaks to be emerged and built.
It's an enhancement. You're reporting that a package works, but "missing keywords" warnings are not errors. It simply means that noone got around to test that package. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-amd64-faq.xml#keyword
OK, whatever. Y'all can run with it and fix it. I suppose anyone running a 64 bit server with Gentoo on it is sophisticated enough to manually edit the ebuild in order to get the emerge of swaks to work. The classification difference is trivial as long as the problem gets fixed. I fixed it on my 64 bit servers, and filed a bug report as a courtesy, so it's in your ballpark :-)
