We currently have Serializable.orx in trunk, two methods readObject and
writeObject in CircularQueue class, and dependencies to Serializable.orx in
CMakeLists.txt.  See also [feature-requests:#566
<https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/feature-requests/566/>]

What should be the action for 5.0?
Remove all above?
(If so, is there anything I should do, so that Serializable.orx isn't lost
forever after I remove it from trunk?)
