I'm fine with keeping them around as long as they still are mostly working, as
that is a better way to get people to join and fix the problems. Once we
remove them completely we go back to the previous state where nobody will pop
by to fix the cmake build scripts, as we won't have any around to fix.

We do use CVS so we always have them stored for anyone to read from the
respository, even if they end up being removed at a later point.
