Lets turn the question around.

Why should GDB 6.0 retain support non-multi-arch targets?  If someone 
needs to debug a non-multi-arch target they can download GDB 5.x.

For current status, see the file src/gdb/MAINTAINERS.  Hmm, the ARM 
entry is out-of-date!  The ones marked as ``OBSOLETE candidate'' are 
first up.

The SPARC is multi-arch, Alpha is WIP, m68k had an expression of 
interest, HP/UX is typically broken.
