I suggest you report those as a bug in FPC, and a bug in the Documentation.

The Object Pascal language supports the syntax that allows a short
message to guide the developer to the replacement or alternative:

   <deprecated ['some message'];>

That message will also appear in the compiler output.

For example:

    procedure   UpdateWindowPosition; deprecated 'use UpdatePosition';


The fpdoc documentation tool also supports the ability to correctly
document deprecated methods, classes etc.
