Yeah, I just didn't find any distros where either of these were installed at all, so I didn't bother porting them over. Which doesn't mean that it has to stay this way if there actually are any users, but this might also be a good opportunity to gauge interest in some of the more esoteric parts of our build infra and potentially drop them if nobody complains.
