What algorithm? What do you mean by "local revlibs"?
You do realize that tla does not currently add to a revlib except
under explicit direction, right?
In the future, perhaps that will change -- but if it does, you'll
certainly be able to override that behavior with a hook that adds the
revision to the revlib of your choice.

_What_ issue? If some code wants to build a link tree, and it has a
choice of revlibs, it should look for one that it can actually make a
link tree from.
