So you have a bug in the module that can only be fixed in a function you
want to deprecate?
No, I have a bug in a function that I want to deprecate. You said I
don't need to fix it if I add a deprecation warning. However, as far
as I know, deprecation warnings are not backported to maintenance
branches while bug fixes are. So the specific question is: there is a
bug in trace.find_strings() - should it be fixed in 3.1-maint?
My opinion would be:
* No we don't backport the deprecation warning
* No we don't need to fix the bug
Others may disagree. (Logic being that we won't fix the bug in 3.2, if
we fixed it in 2.7 then we would have to fix it in 3.2. Therefore we
shouldn't fix in 2.7.)
