Debian rules -- its users foreseen similar problem in analogous fail2ban loong ago, so Debian-shipped fail2ban has been running without such a vulnerability for more than a year (recent upstream released of fail2ban adopted Debian-introduced solution). denyhosts is a younger party in Debian thus gentoo people got to the problem first.
