Yes I see it seems to be pulled in by toolchain regardless, so for this
patch we might just be adding to determinism. but I think it raises question
on why toolchain is adding this everywhere, I think we should remove it
from toolchain default deps. It will make metadata more consistent
across internal/external toolchains
