When I was taking my ebuild quizzes, I asked for someone to clarify the
implicit system dependency that we have enshrined in the devmanual:

There is... some agreement, but also special cases and special-special
cases that are folklore-only at this point. To me it seems like a fine
thing to ask the council to sort out, so I'm asking here for discussion.

Can we come up with an idiot-proof list (or FLOWCHART, even!) of what
should and should not be excluded from *DEPEND?


Assume a C runtime and a C compiler do exist.


I would extend that to a C++ compiler and library as well.

We are having yet another C++-moment (libstdc++ as usual) so it might change, please beware.
