Putting it more strongly, I think these should stay.

WindISS is a Wind River simulation environment (including C library), 
and is still available; Wind River ships WindISS with some of its 
development platforms.

I know that we've been promising pdated VxWorks configurations for a 
long time, and it's reasonable to wonder if we're serious.  But, we are; 
we've been pushing out the VxWorks 6.x binutils bits actively of late, 
and as soon as those are in, we'll do GCC.

We want the binutils bits to go in first, so that we can test the GCC 
bits with the actual FSF binutils bits.  Our current internal versions 
are based on GCC 3.3.2 and we have some ugly binutils hacks that are 
being cleaned up as we push out to the FSF.
