I'm not very familiar with how axes3d works, but just by looking at the number of transform calls and objects, it appears that it will take significant effort to update it. It was never one of the goals of the transformation refactoring to have that working. Personally, I'm +1 on removing axes3d.py to avoid confusion.
However, a motivated user could follow the information in API_CHANGES to update axes3d.py. I'd be happy to help if you got stuck, but I don't really have the motivation/mandate to do the whole thing myself.
