    Right now it's in a state of limbo: it does not build, but it's not dead
    either...

That is ok.  There is no hurry to change it.

Please don't be in such a rush to delete things that MAY some day be
useful.

       I'm currently porting GNU Emacs 21.2 to OpenVMS? 7.3-1, and
       summarizing progress in this space. When the work is done,
       only build tips will remain. --ttn

Does it say how to contact him?
