To generalize on Francesco's email, how long should developers wait for
minority arches to mark stuff stable, after a security bug, and then a
reminder more than 4 months later? 5 months of no response from the
arches says something is wrong on their side.

I think that usage statistics might point out that there are nobody even
using these specific ebuilds that are proposed for removal.
