The compiler package is surprisingly often used; we already had
complaints when (I think) 2.6 began emitting lots of new
DeprecationWarnings, but for modules/APIs whose replacements was
straightforward.

Replacing usage of the compiler package is usually not straightforward,
since the AST differs from Python's own, and the API for accessing it
even more.  This means that lots of code will continue spewing out these
warnings.

However, a more visible notice in the docs would not hurt, I guess.
