 Knee-deep in tests I ran over this:

 Since PHP 4.3 we have a nice function called {{{debug_backtrace()}}} that
 can improve the message thrown out in {{{_deprecated_function()}}} a lot
 by adding information about the context (e.g. file and line) where a
 deprecated function was originally called.

 In conjunction with WP_DEBUG a real time saver. Simple and smooth. Patch
 is against fresh trunk.

 Example output after patch:

 ----

 Notice: get_settings is '''deprecated''' since version 2.1! Use
 get_option() instead. Called in file '''wp-
 content/themes/oldtheme/functions.php'''  on line 5.

 ----

 Since we're globally in testing these days I can only suggest to give this
 a shot and put this ticket 3.0 out of the standard order. If a core dev is
 not confident with that, please put on a later version.
