deprecate Dwarf1

Not yet for mdebug, maybe mention something about it being queued for
deprecation in the NEWS/TODO file for the next release?

nlm... you mean nlmread.c or nlm/* ?
google threw up a few things:
http://home.arcor.de/armin.diehl/fpcnw/gdbnw.html (seems active, uses 5.3).
http://www.herdsoft.com/ti/netware/cross/4_Debugging.html
There is a gdb wrapper program now that translated netware remote
protocol into gdb remote protocol and vice versa. So they are not
using NLM gdbserver anymore because that supports older versins of
netware only.
