That's actually not the way PEP 11 is meant to work. If some platform
support is to be removed, there should be one major release in which
the code is disabled, and then it should be removed only in the next
version. So if FreeBSD 4 and 5 should not be supported anymore, we
should "break" them in 2.6, and remove the code in 2.7.
