OK, I don't understand what you mean by annotation. Unless my example
was too specific, and you mean annotation for "deprecated"?

A better example would be, from the Linux kernel:

struct rt_mutex_waiter {
        struct plist_node       list_entry;
        struct plist_node       pi_list_entry;
        struct task_struct      *task;
        struct rt_mutex         *lock;
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES
        unsigned long           ip;
        struct pid              *deadlock_task_pid;
        struct rt_mutex         *deadlock_lock;
#endif
};
