Is there a specific reason this is still around?  Originally that was to make it possible to upgrade to Python 2.3 or whenever that was introduced.  I don't think anyone still uses that.

Victor proposed deprecating it as part of PEP 410 (see issue 13882), but the PEP was rejected for other reasons.

Not really, it just that nobody noticed it :-)

We can deprecate it, but it is maybe safer to not remove it.

Note: os.stat() has now new st_*time_ns fields with a nanosecond resolution.

I forgot to remove it for Python 3, and now it can only be removed through a deprecation cycle.

Let’s deprecate it in 3.3 then.

+1 for deprecating.
