Eli's right here. The warning would be to strong.
internal-error and internal-warning refer to GDB detecting an errenous
internal state. Error for non-recoverable, warning for recoverable.
Unless some action is taken, the long term prognosis doesn't look good.
Wait a moment... You were going to use internal warnings to alert the
users that a deprecated function has been called, right? I don't
consider this to be an erroneous internal state that has to be
recovered from.
However, short term, GDB could just as easily die due to a SIGSEG.
It shouldn't so long as the gdb developers haven't broken the legacy
functions that are being deprecated. (Unless it did before, but that's
a different problem.)
