And Gentoo uses a blocker to prevent the installation of both, as AfterStep ships with its own (newer?) version of the library. That means if we wanted to add AfterStep later, we would have to outright replace these.

So how about we just ITP AfterStep instead, and be done with it? I've ITP'd libgsf, a prerequisite for librsvg (used by libAfterImage for SVG support), and I'm working now on AfterStep itself (fixed the build for shared libs and am trying to pinpoint a SIGSEGV in the tools).
