New description:

 POSIX.1-2001 marks ualarm() as obsolete and POSIX.1-2008 removes the
 specification of ualarm().

 In short: RTEMS should stop supporting ualarm and it be removed from the
 source tree, if feasible (I haven't checked).

 10 years of legacy support should be enough.

Comment:

 Nah.. if Fedora 20 still supports it, I don't see why we should drop it.
