I added an obsolescence warning about it in "org-compat.el". It will
still break upstream, since there is no replacement for the variable.

Most variables were only renamed. It's possible that a few of them
changed match groups, but that was probably not intentional (I cannot
remember). The only intended change was `org-link-bracket-re', which is
documented in ORG-NEWS.
