We should really take the opportunity to clean things up for this
release namely:

* Remove the defunct gcjwebplugin which doesn't build any more
* Remove the SNMP stubs as it is has been possible to build without
these for over a year
* Likewise, we should be able to build with the b16 default of
IMPORT_BINARY_PLUGS=false
