We also have an additional freedom here we didn't take with the modular
transition - dropping truly unused/unmaintained modules, such as xkbdata.
Leave them in CVS as historical artifacts but make it clear they are not
going anywhere ever again.
From the module list I made during the modular transition,
these are the candidates I had nominated for retirement:
app/scripts [xon] - run X command on another system via rsh
[Preferred replacement: ssh]
app/xmh - X interface to MH mail tools
[Preferred replacement: exmh]
data/xkbdata - XKB keyboard configuration data
[Preferred replacement: xkb-config]
lib/oldX - X version 10 backwards compatibility
[Preferred replacement: X11!]
