Based on Jan's feedback at [0] that closes the loop (it is indeed a
maintenance headache):

Ok, I won't cry about it :)

In fact, if I may, I would like to say that it is a pleasure to be in
your (pl.) company once again. Looking at the list of people included
here -- some familiar, some unfamiliar -- I remember the younger days.
I have done my tiny share of contributing to the Linux kernel as best
as I could, but as I now grow older I can no longer maintain BFS
(older does not mean inactive, just active at other things), so if it
does give maintenance headache, by all means -- remove it :)

PS. This reminds me of d'Artagnan's phrase from the Soviet version of
"The Three Musketeers" -- "my consolation is that if I am to be
killed, I will be killed by a true musketeer" :)

Well I think that is the classiest response I've ever seen on-list :) huge
respect for that!
