Hi Porters,

We still have (no doubt bit-rotten) code to support Symbian, DOS and
NetWare, but nobody has been submitting smoke or bug reports in years
(https://perl5.test-smoke.org/ does not have them in its OS dropdown).

I propose we kill these in 5.34, which means we should announce this in
perl5320delta, like we did with a bunch in perl5160delta.  We actually
threatened to kill djgpp back then, but never did.

Any objections?
