Probably nobody has updated the code yet, but it *is* still deprecated,
and will be removed any time now.

Drat. I keep forgetting to look in druntime when moving stuff through the 
deprecation process. _No_ functions in druntime or Phobos (aside from those 
use to create durations)  should be taking naked integral values. They should 
be taking Duration.

If you ever see something in the docs which is scheduled for deprecation or 
deprecated, and the date given with it has passed, it's been missed, not 
purposefully left. If it had been purposefully left, any such notes would have 
been removed, and it wouldn't be marked as deprecated.
