To remove some thing you run an EOF case.  Obsolete is used to announce 
EOF with possible future intent to remove.

It is reasonable for a case like this to be the EOF of the old names.  I 
just don't think that Obsolete Volatile is the correct classification, 
since that implies they are still shipped (as they are listed as 
exported interfaces).

Instead there should be a table that lists the EOF and removed interfaces.
