[RFC] Remove AS400 code from trunk (Was: [PATCH] allow pre-lock hook to specify token for locking)

As clkao and I just discussed on IRC, the AS400 port has not been
actively maintained since Jan 2007 and AFAIK nobody has any plans to
do so. So I'm +1 for removing the AS400 implementation of
run_hook_cmd.

Further, I'd like to make a sweep of trunk and remove all AS400
specific code. If anyone ever takes up the port again it's still all
there, the beauty of version control and all :-)

Any objections?

Paul
