The latter - there is no reason to remove the very little existing
AWT code, unless it is replaced by something more real.

Presumably the former. The point is that there will be no GPL-licensed
AWT, not that we don't want AWT - of course we do. (However, we do
want it configurable, so you can build libgcj without AWT if you're
constrained for space.)
