     warning: -writeconfig foo: option is deprecated; there is no replacement

Hmm I don't know. I like the brevity, but I find it to be less user-friendly. And the "it" and "this option" sound wrong on a separate line. Maybe it's just me.

Properly guarded, we could have something like

    warning: -writeconfig foo: option -writeconfig is deprecated
    This option will go away with no replacement.

I'm glad you like &error_fatal, too!  I have had to defend it a few
