I've been asked on the ppc-headers ebuild to provide a depends on addpatches. Shouldn't all kernel.eclass based sys-kernel/*-headers ebuilds depend on this? I'd like to add this to kernel.eclass, but I'm not sure if this will affect bootstrap. Will this munge up the bootstrap build?
I don't see why headers need addpatches, as they simply strip the kernel source and install it. Sources do depend on addpatches.
