No, but predicting what will build in Cauldron is a crapshoot at best anyway.

I don't know exactly what this package does or even what most of the packages
that require it are.  I just know that it's installed on my system and I don't
want unmaintained stuff bitrotting away on my system, hence the interest.

Hopefully someone with some insight can say yay or nay.
