The warning was being considered for the case when GDB calls a
deprecated function.  As long as the deprecated function does its job,
a GDB user doesn't care about it being called.  We certainly should
not scare users in this case telling them something like "GDB will
likely crash in a moment; you HAVE been warned!".
