I'm imagine a few of those older version could be safely removed but I am not
sure which versions people are using. Aside from avr32 and bfin is anyone
using a non-7.4 version?

Yes, I think we could probably remove some of the deprecated versions
(6.8/7.0/7.1).

  Not related but I see it now: does gdb 7.* actually work for avr32? If 
so, why do we keep this old version around?

I believe it doesn't, but I've never tried. All the 7.x versions
shouldn't be selectable for avr32 (unless I'm wrong and they do work).
