It wasn't very obvious to me that these results make a compelling case
for bluez4 needing to RREPLACE bluez5.  Indeed, this section:

root at qemux86:~# opkg install bluez5
Multiple replacers for bluez5, using first one (bluez4).
Package bluez4 is already installed on root.
root at qemux86:~# opkg list-installed | grep bluez
bluez4 - 4.101-r6.0
libasound-module-bluez - 4.101-r6.0

... seems to illustrate (modulo the usual amount of opkg craziness) why
having it be so is not a very good thing.
