Martin Panter added the comment:

There are a few small benefits from removing it, but I am not too fussed if we 
decide to leave it.

* If we keep it, should we fix it so that it doesn’t deadlock? Otherwise, we 
carry around buggy and untested code that claims to be a HTTP 0.9 server but 
isn’t. Keeping it as it is doesn’t feel “clean” to me.

* Easy way to resolve bug reports like Issue 26578.

* Potentially slightly easier to maintain the rest of the code in the future.

If we do keep it, I would like to add comments clarifying that it does not 
implement the real HTTP 0.9 protocol.
