I don't complain about the change in code. It has always happened and it
will happen in future.
I know that those procedures are in the Fileutils unit, I gave a look
and I understood what had happened. But what of unaware users?
I complain about making things more obscure and difficult than necessary
for a plain average user. If a symbol, name procedure, whatever is
marked as deprecated, it's easily understood by anybody. If it generates
a compiler error telling what he should do instead, or that one should
read the release notes, it's again easy to handle. If it simply
"undefined" with no other clue, it just generates user frustration.
