How would you know when the docs don't say?? I wondered the same thing a
few days ago. Just about the whole signal function page had depecrated
functions but no replacement functions so how am I supposed to know what
is the replacement? I guess searching through the source code might work
but  a useful listing would be helpful. Someone took the time to say the
old ones are depecrated but took no time to list new ones.
