I think claiming bundling it isn't a bug because the people wrote it
anticipated it being used that way, is not valid reasoning for Fedora.
The problems caused by bundling (which is why there is a rule), are still going
to apply.
If p7zip is doing that, then it is a problem that should be addressed, not
copied.

To move forward on this, it might make sense to bring this up at a packagers
meeting and see what other people think about the proper way to package that
provides source to be included by other packages. If there is agreement on how
to do it, we can get this reviewed and included. And then later start cleaning
up other packages.

It might be useful to have the p7zip owner at that meeting to get their take on
things.
