So you have a bug in the module that can only be fixed in a function you want to deprecate? No, I have a bug in a function that I want to deprecate. You said I don't need to fix it if I add a deprecation warning. However, as far as I know, deprecation warnings are not backported to maintenance branches while bug fixes are. So the specific question is: there is a bug in trace.find_strings() - should it be fixed in 3.1-maint?
