That's a fairly valid reason.

Per COMMENT, this does not look like a leaf port, so also OK I guess.

Ditto.

This is a leaf port: the fact that it's not used in the ports tree is not
relevant.  It also fetches, builds, and runs fine.  Why deprecate it?

Hard to tell, but reading the pkg-descr (library for writing files
that can be larger than 2GB or contain holes on systems that don't
natively support one or both properties), which FreeBSD does, this
deprecation looks justified.

It fetches and builds fine, and still can be useful from its pkg-descr.
Deprecation looks uncalled for.
