* Remove Makefile targets and tools related to Irix and Tru64 debugging tools.Nicholas Clark2013-07-011-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the targets: perl.pixie perl.pixie.atom perl.pixie.config perl.pixie.irix perl.third perl.third.config It's still possible to run the actions these targets "by hand", if desired. This commit removes the convenience targets from the Makefile, reducing its complexity. It also removes the related support scripts testall.atom and thirdclean from Porting/ pixie is a performance analysis tool for Irix and Tru64 Third Degree is a memory checker tool for Tru64 Given that Tru64 went out of support at the end of 2012, and Irix goes out of support at the end of 2013, it's very unlikely that anyone is still actively profiling or debugging perl on either platform, and hence using these targets. It's been several years since we've even had a regular bug report from either platform.
