I don't think we should talk about the aggregation of TOOL_DEPENDS and
TARGET_BUILD_DEPENDS (my preferred name, with BUILD_DEPENDS getting
added to both and generating a warning as a transition scheme); I don't
understand what the union means, other than one needs distfiles.  Any
given package could be in one or the other or both, for independent
reasons.
