[lsb-discuss] deprecating some interfaces for LSB 3.2?

Currently when compiling LSB checkers, three
interfaces cause gcc depraction warnings to
be issued.

Should those three interfaces also move to
deprecated status in LSB?

pthread_h.c: In function 'pthread_h':
pthread_h.c:838: warning: 'pthread_attr_setstackaddr' is deprecated
(declared at /usr/include/pthread.h:346)
pthread_h.c:840: warning: 'pthread_attr_getstackaddr' is deprecated
(declared at /usr/include/pthread.h:338)

unistd_h.c: In function 'unistd_h':
unistd_h.c:2803: warning: 'getwd' is deprecated (declared at
/usr/include/unistd.h:483)


Note this isn't from a terribly recent gcc, either -
4.1.0 as found in SLES10.

This isn't a question of trying to toss these interfaces
any time soon, but rather to match what the implementations
we're trying to describe do... and be in a position to drop
them if the implementations do decide to finally toss them
(not expected any time soon).
