Hello,
I'm orphaning the dx and dx-samples in rawhide.

It is FTBFS in rawhide due to stricter checks in gcc-6, the upstream
is dead (or actually it was never there, ever since IBM released the
code), and the code itself is ancient (1999). I don't use it and I don't
know anyone who does, so it's not really worth my effort to fix it
to build with gcc-6. I've been keeping the code building (and running,
mostly) for almost 10 years now and I think it's time for someone
else to take over, if they're interested.

If no one is using it then it's not worth the effort but in the packages I've had that have the narrowing conversion issues they have been relatively easy to fix.

Thanks,
Richard
