Hmm.  So those functions have not compiled since 48354581a of
2016-04-10, and nobody's noticed.  Moreover, whatever use-case
they do have would be reduced a good deal by taking a buffer
lock (which might not be available, or our own process might
hold it already).

I'd vote for just removing them...
