I plan to commit this to wwwdocs later today, it adds a caveat to the
top of the file, with a link to a larger description in the libstdc++
section, which links to the new page I've just added to the manual.
It also clarifies that the deprecations apply to C++, so people who
don't care about C++ can ignore that item.
