Some months later, in gnome-2.28.modules file in jhbuild those two
modules are still part of gnome 2.28.  Someone please let me know if
this changes.

And anyway I am not going to bother to physically move code from one
module to another for just a couple of library bindings, just not worth
the trouble.

I am, however, welcome to take other steps to deprecate the bindings:
  1. Add a python warning every time the deprecated module is imported;
  2. Not build the deprecatd bindings by default unless a
--enable-deprecated-bindings option is used.
