As discussed in the mailing list thread starting at <https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2023-January/089808.html> "Plan to remove dead C++ UNO bridge implementations (bridges/source/cpp_uno/*)", the bridge implementation at bridges/source/cpp_uno/gcc3_linux_s390 is apparently dead and should thus be removed. However, that was the only bridge implementation for 32-bit S390, which implies that support for the 32-bit S390 architecture as a whole is dead and should thus be removed.

JVM Framework Wrappers
Wrappers so you can use all the Java Runtime Environments with their slightly incompatible APIs with more ease.
Used to use an over-engineered "plugin" mechanism although there was only one "plugin", called "sunmajor", that handles all possible JREs.
IMPORTANT: The <updated> element in vmfwk/distributions/OpenOfficeorg/javavendors_*.xml files
should only be updated for incompatible changes, not for compatible ones. As stated in the commit
message of https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/69730/ in LibreOffice gerrit:
javavendors_*.xml <updated> should not have been updated...
Changing <updated> causes jfw_startVM and jfw_getSelectedJRE (both
jvmfwk/source/framework.cxx) to fail with JFW_E_INVALID_SETTINGS, which in turn causes functionality
that requires a JVM to issue a GUI error dialog stating that the user must select a new JRE in the
Options dialog. While that behavior makes sense if a JRE was selected that would no longer be
supported by the modified javavendors_*.xml, it is just annoying if an already selected JRE is still
supported. And a compatible change to javavendors_*.xml implies that an already selected JRE will
still be supported."
