Is there much point? shmobile shows no sign of fixing their #error for
the restart changes (and haven't responded to any of my emails) - I
think we should be thinking about removing this -clearly- unmaintained
set of platforms.
So, it currently looks like I'm going to be pushing a #error for them
in during the next merge window. I'd much rather just delete the
unmaintained code to avoid adding those evil things.
