I'm not sure if there has been a single build of a repository using
orbit-recipes. CVS is supposed to be frozen very soon so I guess as soon as
that happens there should be composite repos up with the old Mars.1 content
combined with the new stuff from orbit-recipes.

David has mentioned he'd like some help in reducing the set of Mars.1 things
needed by going through project iplogs or something like that..

So I remember seeing a couple of bugs relating to the uses-mode checks,
and how disabling them might be ideal in some cases.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=217317
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=216934
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=453507

It might be worth keeping tabs on this, especially if bundles will all be
doing it by default going forward.
