ec2-ami-tools shouldn't have been installed if I recall correctly, as it is not FOSS. I (perhaps incorrectly?) remember someone saying it would be removed from the next image version.

Either way, you can remove it easily enough, without worry. Unless you'll be allocating new AWS recources from the instance, it's not going to be of use - and if you do want to do such a thing, euca2ools are better, anyway.
jforbes told me that the next set of images he posts won't include it. As of yet I have no idea what the state of said images is, though.
