  PR:		14267
  Submitted by:	Ade Lovett <ade@lovett.com>
  
  	x11-toolkits/auis has been marked as BROKEN ever since the
  	switch to ELF (cvs logs show this as October 15th 1998,
  	almost exactly one year ago.
  
  	In addition, looking at ftp://ftp.andrew.cmu.edu/pub/AUIS/
  	there have been no new releases since 1994.
  
  	Since:
  
  	(a)  fixing this port to DTRT under ELF is likely to be a
  	     horrendously non-trivial task
  	(b)  there's no maintainer
  	(c)  AUIS itself hasn't been updated in over 5 years
  	(d)  no-one seems to care about it enough to get it working
  	     again (searches on the ports list show nothing relevant)
  
  	I humbly submit that this port should be consigned to the
  	great bit-bucket in the sky, buried with the respect that
  	such a behemoth deserves and with full military honors.
  
  	Requiem Mors Pacem.
