Hi,

OSF/1 = Tru64 and IRIX are
  - already marked as unsupported for a while [1],
  - end-of-life for more than 11 years [2],
  - proprietary OSes that existed only on non-x86 hardware
    and are therefore unlikely to still be in use in virtual machines.

I'll remove support for these two OSes from Gnulib in a couple of days.
There's no point in carrying around code that has not been tested in more
than 5 years and that is unlikely to be useful for porting to other platforms.
