As I posted above, Brion already closed this as
WONTFIX:

...thereby ruining my chance to call myself a MediaWiki developer :)
Well, yeah. Note the logic in the WONTFIX: if the sites aren't trusted
not to be spam links, take them out of the interwiki map.
Paying any attention to the complaints of SEOs and Googlemancers is
approximately pointless. Perhaps we should ask them: "Please nofollow
all your links to Wikipedia!" That would benefit the world by
exploding their heads.
