I fully support the plan to remove stabs support, but this patch broke
bootstrap on AIX.  It seems rather bad policy to remove support for a
feature without ensuring that the removal does not negatively impact the
targets touched by the patch.  I should have been explicitly copied on
these patches and I should have been asked to test the patches before they
were installed, if for no other reason than politeness and consideration.

Thanks, David
