Yes. I've had another go at this, taking a different approach. There's
still a lot of pure deletion, but I'm pretty sure we'll never want the
stuff I've deleted, and code which doesn't exist can't have bugs in.
I've preserved the formatting, and this time I've left in stuff which we
don't need now but might want later (though I've ifdeffed it out because
it won't build without some more support machinery).
The diff is still rather heavy, but most of it is the test vectors. I
don't have a good answer for them: upstream has some elaborate machinery
for parsing them which I really don't want to reproduce here, even in
Perl or something. Indeed, I liked the idea so little that I prepared
the replacement test vector files by hand.
