This obviously needs to be clarified with respect to pkgsrc.  For 
example if we have a package that has an important fix in their upstream 
repository but hasn't made it to a release yet we usually apply that 
patch to pkgsrc.  Are you saying that if upstream used an LLM we can no 
longer apply that patch even if we didn't write it?  How is that 
effectively different from just using an upstream tarball that includes 
the LLM patch?

These things must be clarified ASAP if you are really banning any LLM 
code whatsoever from pkgsrc, as it has large ramifications.  I would 
suggest doing it as quickly and as absolutely clearly as possible so 
there is no possibility of confusion here.
