thanks for your answer.

This email contains the patch to remove the arm26 architecture.

This is neither meant against you nor against the arm26 port, and I
don't have any problems if you or anyone else will submit an arm26 port
in a working state in the future.

The arm26 port has been in a state where it was far from even compiling
for quite some time.

Ian Molton agreed with the removal.
