Comment (by chipbennett):

 Replying to [comment:10 scribu]:
 > @chip: Log Deprecated Notices plugin can't do anything about it, since
 there's no mechanism in PHP to find out when a particular constant is
 used. Same for global variables (which is why they're evil).

 Why is that? Couldn't either Plugin read the phpDoc headers, and cross
 reference the `@deprecated` tag against the constant being used anywhere
 in the Theme files? (Isn't that what they do anyway, to provide the
 deprecation (since-version, alternative function)?
