I'd vote for total removal from the tree. I don't believe it has
(many) users left and it is i386 specific or at least little-endian
specific (there are bitfields used in it). I don't think there's
anybody willing to spend time on it in the future, and scanning
the Net for info a year ago it seemed that PINT was quite dead too.
So, I'd say get rid of that ugly piece of code in the NetBSD tree,
that only seems to cause trouble for users.

Feico.
