I disagree about this one. This is a violation of a must rule in
policy, and there is no reason to not fix it (since a mekfile can call
anything you need it to). Seems like the violators are mostly vdr
related (and leave, which was last checked against ancient policy
version 3.6.0).
If you want bugs filed, OK, sure. Need to do something when
bored with job interview prep.
