removing support for old platforms

Subject: removing support for old platforms

RMS has OKed removing support for the platforms in the list below.
(after advertising this on a few relevant list and waiting a few
months).

In order to not leave junk in the tree, we could collect all the symbols
it defines in a new section at the one of admin/CPP-DEFINES. If all the
#defines for a symbol have been removed, then the code that makes
use of that define can be removed.

The MSDOS platform still has some interesting code that we might want to
reuse: it has real menus in text mode, that functionality would be good
to have at some point in the future for terminals.
Eli, how do you wan to handle this?

Help doing this work would be greatly appreciated.
