Yes, Pollen was originally a PLaneT module, but IIRC I used `raco planet link` 
to install it (consistent with the instructions here [1])

Here's how I can reproducibly shift between states:

1) Warning appears ("tool "pollen" registered twice ...")
2) Delete `info-cache.rktd`. Warning disappears.
3) Do `raco pkg remove pollen`.
4) Go to pollen directory and do `raco pkg install`.
5) Warning reappears.

So maybe it's a simple matter of erasing the old PLaneT references (?) but I'm 
not sure where those lurk, and all the `raco planet ...` commands referenced in 
the docs [2] are apparently long gone.
