Lint, clean or dirty, is still lint.  If no one is maintaining a target 
it should go.  If a platform is dead, it should go.  It should not be 
left lying around on the off case that someone chooses to revive it - 
that's what the CVS repository is for.

The maintainers don't have the resources to spring clean all those 
obscure targets every time a core change is made.  Trying to this only 
results in much wasted effort and a bunch of buildable yet still broken 
targets.
