It's just that it was a lot of extra work for something I don't
personally use. F-9 will also be EOL'd in not so many months.
Note that if you want to add the branches for F-9 you'll have to go
through the whole bootstrapping business with someone in rel-eng,
which is complicated and time-consuming.
