If it isn't creating a significant maintenance burden, I would recommend
leaving the code in place.

As an aside, I have a DECTALK-PC card here that requires an ISA slot, but no
machine in which to run it and no current need for it. At some point I'll
donate it to a worthy recipient, who will then have the interesting experience
of discovering whether or not it works anymore.
