banshee-daap uses libavahi1.0-cil. So yes it's actually used. 

I'll look into making avahi nicer for you guys.  With some luck i can persuade 
upstream to split up into different tarballs.

For the record, dbus upstream has planned to split the source into seperate 
tarballs. So that'll solve the issue for dbus.

Nothing in testing is using it currently, so that shouldn't be an issue.
