however, pwc-source is indeed installed:
# apt-cache policy pwc-source

It turns out that pwc-source installs an override in
/usr/share/modass/overrides (actually, a symlink to
/usr/share/modass/packages/default.sh. This seems strange in itself, but I
cannot judge whether this is a good or a bad thing).
While using module-assistant, it is not clear that pwc-source has an
override. The only indication that something is wrong, is that m-a says
pwc-source is not installed.
