I was under the impression that not much development happened on
(distributed) pmake, but there seems to be a 2.1.35beta at the
ftp-site so it seems I was wrong on that.

I do think some coordination feature-wise between FreeBSD make and
pmake would be a good thing, but that's probably not much helped by
having (I assume) older customs-code in FreeBSD make.

So, assuming it's no problem for future syncing with customs pmake, I
think ripping out the code is a good idea.
