I haven't looked at the code but it seems that this dependency is now
required in order to build qdoc, so reducing the severity to wishlist.

I don't know if it's possible at all to build everything but qdoc. And the
effect of this could be many packages starting to FTBFS.

The only way around I see is submitting patches upstream to avoid clanf
usage. Remember they need to go directly to upstream, we can't forward then
except for very small changes.

Regards, Lisandro.
