Hi all,

I noticed that in the latest round of gcc obsoletions (for 3.5) they have
proposed vax-*-*.  Link is here:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2004-06/msg01113.html

This would be, I think, a Bad Thing.  Does anyone on the list have any
pull with the GCC folks to say "no, don't do this"?  It was already
pointed out in a followup that SIMH provides VAX support, and as far as I
know GCC has not obsoleted the pdp11-*-* targets... I can't follow their
logic here.
