[parted-devel] Deprecation method

[leslie.polzer at gmx.net]

Hello folks, and esp. Otavio,

  the __deprecated method to mark deprecation is good, but I fear it
won't suffice for the partition guessing stuff (and everywhere else
where signatures or semantics of functions have changed without changing
the name).

  For example, 1.8 will return a zero or a one in the file system probe
function. 2.0 will presumably return an integer between 0 and 100. When
using a macro, we can have flexible semantics for legacy apps and new
semantics for upgraded apps.

  Leslie
