See my comment on the mailing list about 4.x:

Hi,
this is a binary backwards break in 4.x, because the method signature, user's
code was compiled against in previous versions, is removed for no reason. In
4.x I would keep the one-arg methods, but just let it delegate to the vararg
version. The javadocs can stay the same.
In fact this change requires to recompile your source-code (source-code
compatibility is ensured) but does not provide binary compatibility.
