What matters is what happens to users when building from the branch, and
using the binary packages that are bulk-built from the unmodified
branch.  I'm sorry you have issues with an extra copy of something, but
that's very minor in the grand scheme of pkgsrc.

Sure, happy to look at a proposal/rationale post freeze, and builtin.mk
is normal for things that can be used from the OS as a full replacement
for the pkgsrc version.
