It's a good question.

Christophe Grand thinks they're "half deprecated" here:
http://www.adrianmouat.com/bit-bucket/2011/02/common-lisp-clojure-and-evolution/#comment-3932

Brian Carper expected them to be deprecated back in mid-2010 here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2994618/in-clojure-how-do-i-access-keys-in-a-vector-of-structs#comment3062840_2994618

Sam Aaron thought they were deprecated in Clojure 1.2 here:
http://www.pawfal.org/dave/blog/2011/01/clojure-frustrations/comment-page-1/#comment-250

Andrew Brehaut thought they were due to be deprecated in 1.2 here:
http://brehaut.net/blog/2010/a_couple_of_lists

Alex Miller considers them deprecated here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4575170/where-should-i-use-defrecord-in-clojure

Stuart Sierra says they "should probably be considered deprecated"
here: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.clojure.user/52628

Clojure Programming (Grand, Carper, Emerick) says "Clojure retains a
vestigial “struct” map implementation—via the def struct,
create-struct, struct-map, and struct functions—that should be
considered deprecated at this point, and avoided." on page 272.

Another reference to them being deprecated back in Clojure 1.2:
http://faustus.webatu.com/clj-quick-ref.html

But I agree it's hard to find an official statement of deprecation anywhere.
