But it should definitely be fixed. E.g. I actually personally use (for Cogito development) git-core which I never make install (I have system-wide git-core installation which is just whatever is the latest version Gentoo ships, and I use that for non-Cogito development). It would be painful if this mode of usage wouldn't be supported.
