So, this is pretty obviously something to discuss more fully and perhaps do *after* the branch is cut. We've had way too much instability impacting bulk builds so far with the fontconfig/freetype2/bz2 bug, and I don't think cleanup is worth risking more. I'm not saying you're off and that we should be keeping it. Just a far weaker suggestion that the risk of trouble is too high during a freeze.
