I do not think DEPRECATION should be in the same scale
as regular messages. To me -deprecation should present
the deprecated messages independently of the levels of
logging.

Do not associate deprecation with log levels,
in other words, the inclusion of exclusion of
deprecation is separate. You could acheive this with
something like:
void log(String msg, int level) {
if (level == MSG_DEPRECATED) {
if (!deprecationIsOn()) return;
level = MSG_ERROR;
}
// original log code
}
This means you can use for MSG_DEPRECATED some value
outside the regular flags, like '-1'.
