Most versions of sys-libs/db DEPEND on binutils, which forces it to be cross-compiled while it isn't actually used. (Since GCC 10 no longer DEPENDs on binutils, this is the only package causing it to be built when using SYSROOT.) The dependency was added in the mid-neolithic era to require --default-symver, but now all incompatible versions of binutils are long gone. This patch removes the dependency from all EAPI 7 ebuilds. (I think the difference in 6.2.38 was just a boilerplate change from https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/commit/e400c607964c0e0925f077e6f18d8fbb061cdf33 .)
