  Hello,

I no longer have the means to help maintain support for AIX in GDB,
anymore, so I have to step down from that position. This patch updates
gdb/MAINTAINERS accordingly.

gdb/ChangeLog:

        * MAINTAINERS: Remove myself as AIX Maintainer.

Thanks,

I don't have any particular special interest in AIX myself,
but I'd like to thank you for all the work anyway.

Particularly I remember the long overdue shared library support
reimplementation/modernization that you did -- was much
appreciated for getting rid of some reeeeeally old and ugly code!
Cheers,
Pedro Alves

Thanks, Pedro!

I remember that one too! It certainly forced me to understand
the object format on AIX better, and it was at least very satisfying
for me to help get rid of that old and ugly code. I guess all cleanups
have to be super satisfying :).
