Closing older PRs that have been rendered irrelevant by the passage of time, or where the problem can not be reproduced on a current system, or where the original submitter has disappeared and there's no one else interested: that seems like a worthwhile project to me. But there should be better selection criteria than just the time elapsed since submission.
