Not so much, as it turns out. Out of all the various entities
that your patch highlighted, I got only 2 hits:
- One is in a comment; I've sent an email to the maintainer
hoping he'd have some time to take a look:
http://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2009-04/msg00133.html
- One is in the documentation. I've sent a patch to remove it.
http://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-04/msg00362.html
I think it's safe to remove all these entries from the ARI, now.

There were deprecated and, as you have found out, are no longer
used, nor even setup. Defining these macros would have had no
effect at all.
