    Guido> PEP 4 lists these that were already obsolete in 2.0:

    Guido>     addpack, cmp, cmpcache, codehack, dircmp, dump, fmt,
    Guido>     lockfile, newdir, Para, poly, regex, regsub, tb, timing,
    Guido>     util, whatsound, tzmod, find, grep, packmail, ni, rand,
    Guido>     soundex, cl, sv

    Guido> of these, regex, regsub, and timing are still importable in 2.4.

And in 2.5.  Regex and regsub both import with deprecation warnings.  Timing
imports without a peep.  None of the others import.
