/usr/include/stdio.h:extern char *gets (char *__s) __wur
__attribute_deprecated__;
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys/cdefs.h:# define
__attribute_deprecated__ __attribute__ ((__deprecated__))

__wur being warning about unused result.

As for actually using it here, I tried adding it onto the
_old_dirname/basename prototypes.  It produces an error, fine, in the
bootstrap build for xinstall it would not error, great.  However, for
building xinstall on head where it will not use the __old_dirname and
will use the new dirname@FBSD_1.5, it _still_ complains about using the
__old_dirname() prototype via __generic and errors in the wrong case.
