I also want to get rid of it rather sooner than later. But we have to deal with 
the compiler for quite a while in 5.9 anyway, and I’d expect that a lot of the 
bug fixes will go there. So the question is how much we’re gaining dropping it 
now a month before the 5.10 freeze.

In any case, I’ve asked for download numbers for 2013. I’d like to see those 
before we make the decision.

Cheers,
Lars
