I disagree. I think deprecating platforms should be done very
cautiously, definitely not as the default reaction to no patches being
submitted.
If you are proposing a change in the current strategy, this issue
should be discussed (on gdb@, I guess). For startesr, please define
the ``long time'' after which it is okay, in your opinion, to
deprecate a platform.
