  Modules can be marked obsolete.  This means that the problems they fix
  don't occur any more on the platforms that are reasonable porting targets
  now.  @code{gnulib-tool} warns when obsolete modules are mentioned on the
  command line, and by default ignores dependencies from modules to obsolete
  modules.  When you pass the option @code{--with-obsolete} to
  @code{gnulib-tool}, dependencies to obsolete modules will be included,
  however, unless blocked through an @code{--avoid} option.  This option
  is useful if your package should be portable even to very old platforms.
  
  In order to mark a module obsolete, you need to add this to the module
  description:
  
  @example
  Status:
  obsolete
  
  Notice:
  This module is obsolete.
  @end example
