I much prefer having the 9999 functionality in an if-case instead of having it be a separate ebuild, and I'm also not sold on the need to -r1
the 9999 ebuild, a build fix should not mean a need to rebuild it.
a build fix should not mean a need to rebuild it
I disagree. When I fix an ebuild, I want that fix to be propagated.
I this particular case, upgrading the eclass provides new USE flags, which makes it even more important to increase the revision number:

Description: Experimental Logitech force feedback module
Now, symbolic links make it too hard to keep renaming ebuilds every time you change them (like I think you should), so I avoid symlinks.
The beauty of overlays is that we can both have our way, so I'll copy and fix the ebuilds I need from you in my own overlay.
