I didn't propose it for removal because of a single patch
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-01/msg00511.html> reported to have
been tested on vax-netbsdelf. If the maintainers wish to propose
deprecation and no-one else wishes to come forward to maintain it, we can
certainly include it in the deprecations; otherwise, all vax targets other
than vax-netbsdelf and maybe vax-openbsd are likely to appear in the list
of individual targets to deprecate for lack of even a single patch tested
there.
