Feedback on the proposed deprecations is appreciated. Personally, the two I'm unsure about are "get_class(), get_parent_class() and get_called_class() without argument" which are mostly stylistic in nature, and "strftime() and gmtstrftime()", where the non-portability issues are possibly not so bad that a disruption of existing users is worthwhile.
