In general making something (in the user namespace, not necessarily in the
case of a symbol starting _) into a compat symbol should get an entry in
NEWS under "Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting
compatibility:". We've done this even for functions that could not
actually work at runtime (e.g. the wrappers for various obsolete Linux
kernel syscalls removed from the kernel before the oldest kernel version
supported by glibc at the time of making the symbols into compat symbols).
