Our documentation, QA team insist that we should not depend on system
packages and there are good reasons to do that. But still above bug
clearly states different. Also if we consider perl and some other
packages, they also could became target to be removed... But I'm not
going to repeat discussion we already had recently:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/54035

So yes, there is ambiguity and the question is valid. But since we had
discussion recently I don't see what else we can discuss now.
