I don't think dropping the 68K support would make porting extensions to the
PPC any simpler.

There are a number of extension modules that have valid PPC executables but
haven't yet been compiled/linked and run successfully for *68K (Storable,
most notably.) Can't think of an example that works the other way.

As long as some of us are still working using *68K machines, and Arved is
willing to mentor, and it doesn't inconvenience the PPC users - leave us
our innocent pleasures? :-)
