 We=E2=80=99d love to keep it alive if we can. Unfortunately we don=E2=80=99=
 t have anyone with test kit at the moment, so it is difficult to test. =
 The other option would be to get it working on an emulator somehow.
 
 Are you ok if I close this PR in the meantime? Even if we get a Tru64 =
 box, we=E2=80=99ll need to start from scratch with the latest
 bootstrap.
 
 Kind regards
 Chris
