No. No. No. Everything must and should be documented. Perl should be
completely and fully specified.
There should be _no_ deprecated features when Perl 6 is released. Whatever
Larry (or the community) decides should be it.
Given the expected dynamic loading capablity there should be no reason
that a perl5 compatibility library would be able to handle all of the
deprecated features.
