Re: Patch: drop NEC v810 support

So if I submitted a patch which just did this, it could get approved easily?

Dropping the port is OK too, but if we are doing that, then we may as well
delete the newlib bits. The main part is in the lib/sys/sysnec810 directory
and the newlib configure.host file, but there are various files with #ifdef __v810__ in them to deal with NEC compiler specific issues. Use
"find . -type f | xargs grep v810" to find them. This isn't your problem
though, it is a problem for the newlib maintainers to worry about.

I just want to get through the autoconfiscation blockers.
