Second, sarcasm is used far to little in this field.

Instead of "plot/compat", call it "plot/old". When "plot3000" comes
along, then the geezers like me still using the old old plot should have
to ask for "plot/old/really-dude?", and at some point,
"plot/old/really-dude?/you-have-been-warned".

Ha ha! I could start with plot/antique, then go to plot/ancient, then plot/jurassic...

A tad more seriously, if we had a death date for the old one, I could put it in the library name. You'd have to put

    (require plot/supported-until-2013-01-01)

That'd drive the point home.
