I don't know why this site marks posts_where as deprecated.

This claims posts_where is not in 3.0, but it is:
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.0/wp-includes/query.php#L2317


I think if you can use WP_Query's query variables for your query, you
should, but posts_where is here to stay as far as I know.  It'd break
a lot of stuff [1] if it were ever removed.
