Deprecated functions and variables
==================================

6.0.1
- The procedure "read-buffered" can return a string with incomplete
  codepoints when a non-binary encoding is used in the port. It
  will be replaced by a method that returns bytevectors in the
  future.
- "include-relative" is not needed, as "include" already takes the
  including file directory into account.
- "exit" and "emergency-exit" from "(chicken base)" are deprecated, 
  use the R7RS standard procedures from "(scheme process-context)" 
  instead.

6.0.0
- The foreign type "blob" is obsolete and equivalent to the 
  foreign type "bytevector".

5.3.1
- "set-signal-handler!" and "signal-handler" have been deprecated
  in favor of "make-signal-handler" and "ignore-signal" which are
  better suited in a multithreaded environment.

5.0.0
- "bit->boolean" has been introduced temporarily to avoid users
  having to figure out why "bit-set?" uses a different argument
  order than the procedure with the same name that is specified in
  SRFI-33 and SRFI-60. This procedure will be replaced by the proper
  "bit-set?" in one of the next versions, together with a C level
  macro or function.

  "bit->boolean" expands into "C_u_i_bit_to_bool", "C_i_bit_to_bool"
  or "C_i_fixnum_bit_to_bool", which are all deprecated as well,
  but might be re-used in a future version of "bit-set?".
