Nothing fancy. IIRC, I use (funcall ) to call obsolete functions.
eval-when-compile may define a certain macro which expands to either
old backward-compatible syntax, or new no-warnings syntax depending on
the version.
[People rarely realize what a strange mixture of obsoleteness and
flaming edge is present in scientific institutions (those where there
is a system administrator supporting individual stations). Of
course, little may compare with my house ;-]
Yours,
