I'd actually suggest that prelink be an all-or-nothing.  If it isn't in
the default install, support for it in the other things that interact
with it will bit-rot (and maintainers will have little incentive to fix
problems).

If it isn't in the default install, it should probably just be removed
from the distribution.  If it improves performance noticably, then keep
it; if it doesn't, why should it be kept at all?  It has non-zero
support cost outside of the package itself.
