What is policy on this sort of thing?
A good rule of thumb is that if external software is no longer supported by its own community, then Emacs needn't worry about it. That's why Emacs dropped support for IRIX, for example -- SGI retired IRIX about a year ago. So if Arch has been retired, we can remove support for it from Emacs.
