Point of information: for module deprecations, stacklevel=2 is correct
in 2.7 and 3.5, but in 3.4 the correct value is stacklevel=8 (see
https://bugs.python.org/issue24305#msg249981). I'm inclined to think
that this is a bug that should be fixed in 3.4.4, but Larry disagrees
and I don't really care enough to argue about it either way :-).
