I'm sure there's many more clients who call it (even if just as cargo-cult
imitation of how the "spamassassin" script had it ;).
I think removing the function entirely would result in some very nasty
unexpected crashes... especially bad, since we haven't even deprecated
it in a *minor* release yet.
however, +1 on removing all doco -- except for maybe a line noting
that it's a deprecated no-op API -- and setting the code to { }.
- --j.
