it would improve the error reporting output for deprecated types, variables and
functions if it could be possible to define the deprecated attribute with an
optional message, e.g.:
int f1 (void) __attribute__ ((deprecated ("Use f2() instead")));
int f2 (void);
which would print:
warning: f1 is deprecated: Use f2() instead
--
Summary: Add optional message to the deprecated attribute
