Sorry. What is the intention here? I find this construct
confusing, as if it were a double negative. If DEBUG_DEPRECATED
is 0 (or undefined... I had to look that up in the cpp manual),
then the user does not want deprecated functions? Or is
it the other way around?
Why isn't the macro name something obvious like
HIDE_DEPRECATED or EXPOSE_DEPRECATED (depending on
the default)?
