Well, formal "deprecation" in the language standards sense, as in, "warning,
we will be removing this from future versions of this language". There's a
difference between something like gets() or tempnam(), where some compilers
will refuse to link programs which call them, and something like scanf(),
where I've never heard of a compiler doing anything of the sort.
