Removal of hppa support

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz]

Hi Andy!

I noticed that you recently purged hppa support from guile [1].

I would like to protest this move as it was made without coordination
with the hppa porters in Debian. While Debian does not have hppa as a
release architecture, it's still a fully maintained port with multiple
developers working on it and also a userbase.

So, unless there is a good reason for hppa to be removed, I would like
to ask for hppa support to be reinstated in guile. If there are any issues
that need to be worked on, please let us know. We are also regularly
building guile on hppa [2, 3].

Thanks,
Adrian
