I thought the plan was to keep the "obsolete" systems in the 1.4 branch and take them out of the 1.6 release. I don't recall exactly about 1.5.x. off the top of my head..

Is this not the case?

These are:

sun4_413
sub4x_55
sunx86_54
*_nbsd15
*_nbsd16

Does anyone still care about these platforms, or can we get rid of the AFS_64BIT_ENV code?

No interest here; none of them are in use in any systems we support. There may be a few clients out there in the field, but they seem to be perfectly happy running an obsolete AFS version on their obsolete OS version.

Second question...

Even on 64 bit platforms, afs_hyper_t uses two 32 bit values to represent an 64 bit value. Do we still need to do this (the && 0 which disables this dates back to IBM days)?
