Hmm.. depends. Is it provably dead code (as in "you can't possibly
reference it due to the scoping"), or just "nothing in the current base or
packages seems to reference it"? If the latter, I'd wait a week before
actually yanking it, just in case somebody does have something that calls it.
I ask because I've spent a good chunk of the evening fighting with Sendmail
after I stupidly removed the db3-devel RPM thinking that db4-devel would work
too - and then the debugging was slowed down because I didn't find where
something was done because it formed a variable name by catenation (the
old A##B trick). Argh. ;)
