Summarizing ciaran's claim to end this nonsense-
VALID_USE isn't useful because use cycle breaking can't be done
according to strictures he desires, as such VALID_USE is pointless
because pkg_pretend can cover it.
It's a bit brief and likely left out an insult or two, but it's to
the point at least and doesn't need more expounding of his views.
So does anyone _other_ then ciaran care to comment? Thinking I may
write this up as a glep as an attempt to start pushing PMS changes
into a more visible and documented light.
