to me that seems like a good solution. people are expected to rewrite
the code that using deprecated features, yet if compiler happily
compiles deprecated code by default -- why bother?

compiler may suggest to use something like "-allow-deprecated-code" in
error messages, but reject such code by default.

such code will break anyway, so let it break early!
