Yup, good catch.

Please do go ahead and revert that commit.  If we're hosting our own
packages on orgmode.org, then I don't think we need to worry about
conforming to the vagaries of other ELPA package parsers (in this case
marmalade).  I do think that leaving PKG_REQ undefined when there are no
dependencies is the best of the options listed above.

Thanks,
