I said I'm going to obsolete it, not drop it.

Cygport has produced that package already for me. It just wants me to
put it in a different directory for whatever reason (I consider that a
bug at the moment). If I move those files into perl-LWP I think I'm
left with a package that has no sources in [curr] which upset is known
to complain about.

Not yet, until I've figured out what's the correct way forward.
