Gents, I have applied the patch as mentioned, but did not remove so much as initially thought. Looking at the discussion and and the code, I suddenly understood that this might take really a good risk. Therefore I would like to look at each of the methods, either fix or deprecate them one by one.
Anyway, all what could be removed has now been removed, therefore I closed the issue.
