(The logistic challenge there will be side-tag rebuilding all those
after a systemtap subrpm split.)

How much time did excluding the python bits from the perl buildroot
actually save during your tests?

By default, these packages could inherit dependencies on both of the
split subrpms, until their respective packagers decide to analyze and
narrow it further down.
