What's the point here? I can only see cons in not using a distribution's provided versions of libraries. If you need modified versions of libraries, fork them.

Same opinion here. Packages should either build/link against a system's provided library or fork it if they need significant changes. It takes package maintainers a lot of work to patch the build process each time upstream makes a new release.
