There should be mail in the pkg-discuss archives from early this year from when I tackled the X consolidation package refactoring (which delivered into snv_144, so look a month or two before that). The solution we agreed upon for packages upon which existing SVR4 packages may depend (since that's really what legacy package actions are for - satisfying dependencies for SVR4 packages), was to create new "compatibility" packages which deliver just the legacy action and depend actions pointing to the IPS packages needed to make up the content of the old SVR4 package.
