roughly 90% packages depending on one of:

sys-libs/db
dev-libs/boost
dev-lang/python

Sooo, something around 500 packages.

Besides: We wouldn't need the need_python_rebuild anymore, users could
safely uninstall old sys-libs/db versions, old dev-libs/boost versions
and the list of packages to reinstall in python-updater boils down to
what "paludis -u dev-lang/python:2.4" spits out as reverse-dependencies
(or the corresponding portage command).
