Absolutely. It's gotten (started?) very crufty, and _no one_ has been
willing to maintain it. I know ye HPPA/Linux folks have your own port,
and so far not a soul has been willing to contribute it to GDB - I
don't know who can, I sure didn't write it, I just include it in the
Debian packages to make Randolph stop nagging me :)

More to the point, though - if someone steps forward to do some
long-needed work on PARISC, that can stay, but HP/UX support is what I
really want to leave (or be updated).
