I think the existing warning in the docs and the fact it's apparently been fundamentally broken for years is sufficient justification for just dropping it entirely. An explicit deprecation warning could be added in 3.6.1 and a Py3k warning in 2.7.x, though - those changes shouldn't be difficult, and it's a nice courtesy for anyone that *is* somehow currently getting it to work.
