Sorry, but you've missed the point.  It was deprecated because you're
not supposed to bang on a value's type after it is created (or at
least, that's the hope).  And struct value was moved from the header
to the C file in order to stop other places from poking at it.

So this is going the wrong direction :-(

As that says.
