Should this have the same nosy list as #11016 ?

[issue17924] Deprecate stat.S_IF* integer constants

[Christian Heimes]

New submission from Christian Heimes:

Related to #11016
I like to deprecate the S_IF* constants in favor of the S_IS*() functions.

rationals:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/sys_stat.h.html

No new S_IFMT symbolic names for the file type values of mode_t will be defined 
by POSIX.1-2008; if new file types are required, they will only be testable 
through S_ISxx() or S_TYPEISxxx() macros instead.
