I would like to remove this package from BLFS (...)
It is a dead project. No new stable release in over 4 years.

Googling for the Openquicktime package (looking for a GCC4 patch)
> pretty well came up with nothing except references to the LFS project.

Yeah, although I'm pretty new to (B)LFS, I think this is a good move. A few days ago I was compiling multimedia and built almost all mm codecs/packages, trying out gstreamer-0.9 (among other things) - still can't recall anything requiring / referencing OQT. Out of curiosity I googled quite a bit on openquicktime, and as you said I only encountered ages-old websites & BLFS.
