Yesterday I've announced the obsoletion of Solaris 10 support in GCC 9

I believe the same reasons cited there hold for GDB as well. Besides,
we had some build failures recently that only occured on Solaris 10,
creating work to support a rapidly dwindling or even vanished user base.
Therefore, I wonder how best to handle this in GDB.
Looking at the gcc test results for the past few years it looks like
efforts have fallen off a cliff. Certainly I have lost a lot of
interest. I still have reasons to work with Apache and OpenSSL and a
few other places but even those reasons are going away.

There was considerable activity in the previous five years and I know
that I have been submitting results as far back as 1999 or so. However
the last five years clearly point the direction.
