This is the only andrew stuff around for Linux right
now (we should change this at some point), so you
may not want to nuke it.

Some people may be relying on old syspacks for some things (like old
crufty machines).  For example, kludge, Katy's old MCA machine, is
using /afs/sipb.mit.edu/system/i386_linux1/srvd.77.1elf/usr/athena and
doesn't have the disk space to upgrade or move it locally.  I don't
know how many other machines are relying on these, but I
wouldn't be surprised if there are a number of others in the
same position.
