No, what would be best is to find out where 'tree' is referenced and
use the 'substitute*' form in a build phase to replace it with the
full path to '/gnu/store/blahblahblah-tree-1.7.0/bin/tree'. The
'tree' package would then be just a regular input, not a propagated
one. Propagation is for when all else fails and is best avoided. :)
