Maybe, but is it really our goal to fix broken packages that aren't
even maintained any longer?  The latest version of the package will
always be in cvs/etc and users can always go fetch it, but do we need
a special updates mechanism simply for the purpose of fixing packages
that we've already decided are unsustainable?

If an updates-like approach is the best approach for active packages,
then I'd consider the side-benefit to treecleaned ones as being
beneficial.  However, I wouldn't really view this as a primary
concern.  At least, that is my sense of it right now.  The primary
focus needs to be on making dynamic deps work in a sensible way for
active packages, which we're apparently having problems with already.
