The rule isn't always that simple though.  In GTK 2.0 and 2.2, GtkCombo 
was non-deprecated but GtkList was deprecated.  To use the GtkCombo, you 
needed to manipulate the child GtkList.  As a compromise, only the 
GtkList constructor was set to raise a deprecation warning in PyGTK.

I don't think there are any cases like this in GTK 2.4, but they might 
occur again.
