Sandra,
this removes the now-deleted deprecated features. AFAICT these have been 
gone for a long time -- 2008 is the most recent changelog entry -- so no 
need to put it in any release notes.

ok?

Yes, this is fine.  At some point we might want to do more cleanup here, 
but getting rid of obsolete stuff means there's less left to clean up.  :-)
