Umm, I think this is a bit drastic! Bootstrapping is a problem we have to
deal with now and again in -current and it shouldn't be a barrier to new
development. I disagree with Jordan about -current being fundamentally
broken when it's actually a bootstrapping issue, these are the sorts of
things you have to deal with as a -current user while people strive to
find solutions. Removing stuff from -current doesn't move things forward
at all.
