The policy is more that the test suite shouldn't raise Deprecation
Warnings unless it is explicitly checking for them (or otherwise testing
known-deprecated code).

If there is a hole in the test suite coverage such that paths that
trigger deprecated code are not exercised by the regression tests, then
that is a bug.

Cheers,
Nick.
