the only concern is that when deprecated machine is removed,
this code will happily hide test block which should be removed.
Yes, but ideally, the person who removes depreacted machines should "grep"
throught the sources for the machines that should be removed anyway
(otherwise you might miss the spots where they are mentioned in comments
anyway, like in hw/i386/acpi-build.c for example).
By the way, currently there are no x86 machines marked as deprecated ...
should we maybe mark the pc-i440fx-1.x machines as deprecated now, since
they are very old already?
