In 2002 (while working at Red Hat), I contributed the sh64 port.
Through a misunderstanding with Cagney on the protocol of GDB
submission, it was sidelined with that modules change. It appears that
modules change was never reverted.
Whether sh64 is included in GDB tarballs is up to the GDB maintainers,
but yes, you could get rid of that change (modulo the usual problems of
versioning the modules file!)
