Remove some undocumented, deprecated functions which are slated for removal.

These have been deprecated for a while, but there was some balking

slated for removal, so they were instead made undocumented and slated
for removal after yet another 6 months or so. So, now that that time has
passed, here's another attempt to actually remove them.
