I suspect that Thomas has added this so that the package can be built on older
distros with recent pythons installed as "python24" etc.

No, this is correct since some of the Twisted packages are arch-specific and
python's module code doesn't like a single module hierarchy split between the
arch-specific and arch-independent directory locations. So all of the
python-twisted-* packages have to be arch-specific.

They aren't really adding any extra deps; the first is a dep on python, which is
already required by this package, and the second is a dep on coreutils, which
every system is going to have anyway.
