The XEmacs compatibility alias `user-original-login-name' was declared
obsolete even in XEmacs:
https://bitbucket.org/xemacs/xemacs/src/e2ac728aa576a39ca5a7de608a1914dde5b1b083/lisp/obsolete.el#lines-461
Searching for its name on github gives 1383 code matches, most of which
seem to be copies of Emacs itself.
Are there any objections to marking it obsolete?
Best regards,
Stefan Kangas

Subject: [PATCH] Mark XEmacs compat alias as obsolete
* lisp/subr.el (user-original-login-name): Mark as obsolete. This
XEmacs compat alias was obsoleted even by XEmacs, so there should be
no point in keeping it around.
