Removing those obsolete source package of gnuradio would break m68k,
hppa, ia64 and sparc gnuradio-wise.

Did you contact the porters of the relevant release-architectures about
this?

I see two possibilities:
- Indeed remove these, leaving those architectures unsupported by
  gnuradio
- Fix the build failures/bugs, so that gnuradio keeps working on all
  archs

The 3rd option of keeping gnuradio 2 in testing is not an option because
it's migrated to testing already for some reason. So, given this, asking
porter opinion pretty much doesn't buy us anything, I'll remove these
packages anyway -- but it's still desirable to inform them so that they
can work on fixing gnuradio for these architectures if they wish.
