Long story short:

1. use* were always banned in global scope by PMS,

2. portage starts respecting the ban in EAPI 6, so stuff needs to be fixed anyway,

3. the result of those calls is pretty much unpredictable anyway.

This bug is meant to track fixing of all those uses.

It seems that all are fixed now.
