As far as I can see having deprecation messages as Warnings first actually leads to *more* build breakage (as many more people are building with -w than with -de) and less time for adapting code before it is made an error (because -w/-wi is not the default).
I agree with this. Warnings are an orthogonal to deprecation and the current practice causes quite some grief.
