What prompted this change? It's not exactly a mortal sin for code to be old or even ancient, and if there is a sounder reason to remove this file (most of all if in connection to the scratch/interpreted-function branch), we ought to consider the impact of whatever changes are concerned on Lisp code at large, of which legacy-gnus-agent.el is just one specimen, before hastening to remove offenders from Emacs proper.
