Thanks for pointing that out.  I am somewhat disturbed by the positive
review for that becoming a standard package, which seems inconsistent
with previous policy.  In #6663 I am merely suggesting 4ti2 and glpk
as experimental packages, with the idea of transitioning them to
optional, and then maybe standard eventually.

Just to be clear, I have felt that in the past the hurdle for becoming
a standard package is too high.  I just want the process to be
consistent.
