I do not think they are deprecated, nor think they should be documented as such. These functions exist to help write portable code that works with 5.3 and 5.4 and beyond. What does deprecating or removing them solve?
Instead, these manual pages should refer to the topic of magic quotes which, obviously, is a feature people should not utilize. And, they should mention when the magical quotes were removed.
