My question here would be: Is there sufficient reason to remove this function
and introduce a BC break, i.e. is the implementation code hard to maintain or
does the function cause security issues?
Unless that is the case I'd leave it unchanged and just add a note to the
documentation that people might want to consider using getrusage() instead.
If a function cannot be safely or correctly used at all, then it
shouldn't exist, especially if there are working alternatives [1].
Expecting users to find a warning in the docs to learn that they should
"never" use a function is not good developer experience.
