Thank you for reporting this. Could you please file a bugreport against 
the kotlin source package? This won't be fixed for trixie release due to 
the freeze, but it could deserve a stable update. I will also need to 
double-check in the source code that the dependencies are not required 
for some features or libraries that are shipped together with the 
compiler.

Cheers,
