Yeah, no worries about having a few, but we can't keep all old ones 
around until hell freezes over. I can't tell anyone to not maintain a 
port, but I am a bit fed up of compiling compilers during ports 
development. Many LLVM, Rust, a few fewer GCCs, and possibly a few 
Rubies or Pythons (which are a lot quicker to build though).

Did I mention I use a 8-core 16-thread computer with two-digit GByte and 
SSD plus ZFS, and a reasonably sized 20 GB ccache?

Yeah, everyone shaping up for C++23.

Let's get rid of at least two other LLVM ports by then :-)
