In theory I would prefer that "SUNWastdevl" should go into the same metacluster as the packages which fill /usr/ccs/bin/. That way we make sure that the AST l10n generation tools are available when building OS/Net (otherwise gatekeepers may hear complains about built failure over and over again just because one package is missing (which happens near the end of the build, making it an even more nasty "suprise" ... ;-( )) and save any future changes in the package database if we promote the stabilty to something higher (e.g. less paperwork in the future... :-) ).
