Old branches

Looking through the list [1] of branches, there are quite a few in
here that look pretty old. I don't think this is any kind of
time-sensitive thing, but cleaning up a few old branches might still
be a nice thing to do. Here's a list of ones that don't look like they
are being used, and some notes, including ages and the last edited
revision:

bundle-parrot (18 months old, r20963)
gsoc_pdd09 (I will probably delete this one shortly, most of the
material has been copied to pdd09gc_part1 in the GC refactor)
lazyrakudo (5 months old, and rakudo has left the nest. Still needed?)
nci (3 years old, r11219)
pct_hll (6 weeks old, many languages are leaving the nest now, so is
this still needed?)
pdd09gc_part1 (Some of the files will eventually be moved to trunk and
worked on)
remove_new_from_string (6 months old)
splint (19 months old, r19756)
rvar & rvar2 (These were for Rakudo work, are they still needed here?)
tcif (11 months, r26377)

These are just the oldest branches, or the ones that deal with
languages and might be unnecessary now. There are several others that
have been touched in 3-7 weeks and might need to be looked at also.
