[Bf-committers] Remove unused code

[Leif Andersen]

It also says here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Doc/Blender_Source/Files_structure

that the blender/source/tools/ directory is also unused.  If that is the
case, you might also try to remove that if you can.  I tried compiling it
without that directory, and it failed, but then I tried it with, and it also
failed.  I'm now testing it against a known good build, to make sure it
works without it.
