According to bug #9301 [0], PROVIDES is only a list file and is not executed 
in bash. I didn't know that. I guess documentation still hasn't catched up. 
Perhaps that explains why most PROVIDES files still have something 
like: "provides  PROVIDER  &&" in them.

Would it be OK if I devised a cunning little script to fix these like I did 
when I removed UPDATED entries [1]? I already tested it, and just a handful 
of (already) illegal entries were left behind. Those I could take care of by 
hand.
