I've just finished committing fixes for this problem to the master and
release-1.0 branches in Github.  If anyone is feeling enthusiastic and
would like to try pulling those sources and confirming that their
favourite packages no longer generate scads of nasty errors when
re-analysing shlib dependencies, I'd be grateful.

	Cheers,

PS.  If you're running pkg-1.0.3, I recommend you pull down the
release-1.0 branch for these tests.  While you could upgrade to 1.1.a1
from master, that involves various local.sqlite DB schema changes which
will be tedious to unwind should you want to revert to the released
version.
