Hmm --- we've been conducting this argument in a vacuum, but you're right,
we should consider what else is changing in v10. If you can point to
already-committed changes that mean that code using these functions will
almost certainly need changes anyway for v10, then that would greatly
weaken the argument for providing aliases.
