I saw you removed that from the CVS.

This just reminds me that if you do a simple search on .h files for the 
"deprecated" word or VTK_REMOVE_LEGACY_CODE, you end up with a decent 
number of files. I'm even quite sure some of those files still provide API 
that should have been removed when switching from 3.2 to 4.0. I think we 
should have a look at that, do some clean up or discuss when to do that, 
i.e. 4.4 or 5.0 (I know that I want to remove some legacy code in the text 
interface since we introduced the vtkTextProperty code). We have been 
dragging some old legacy code for a while... (and they were tagged as such, 
it's not like we are breaking the API without notice).
