It's the only entry of all profiles without '*'.
portage/gentoo/profiles $ grep '^[^*-\#]' $(find -name packages)
./uclibc/packages:app-misc/pax-utils
It's an ancient entry from 2005:
https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo-gitmig-20150809-draft/commit/7bed3578ef4990787cd6881c8fc8d5085b617494
Not sure if entry should be removed completely or explicitly
pulled in @system.
The change pulls it in.
