I think there's at least one word missing here, e.g. "that" before "are".

We don't generally say "in the next release" in the manual (or "deprecated
from gcc"). Maybe it *is* deprecated, maybe it will be *removed*, or will
*start to warn by default*, in some specified version number (giving a
version number seems better than "next release"), but "will be deprecated"
is odd.
