We have many combinations that get tested e.g. with systemd w/o
systemd, with usrmerge in DISTRO_FEATURE and without, building with
clang or gcc, using musl or glibc and finally
many target architectures. While I agree we should be using latest
version and perhaps dropping patches which are no longer needed but I
think dropping all of them might be a bit too much
so it would be good to state what combinations have been tested with
this and perhaps we should limit the recipe to just that combination
for now.

yes we need help in upstreaming the patches as well.
