 In WordPress 4.0.0 and r28679, the `get_all_category_ids()` function was
 formally deprecated.

 Internally, it continues to rely on a cache key (`all_category_ids`) that
 will never be repopulated.

 This means anyone still using this deprecated function (yikes, I know...)
 on an installation with a persistent object cache is highly likely to be
 retrieving invalid/unexpected results.
