I hope not.

If a library uses an obsolete library in its API, then it should 
consider providing an alternative API using newer alternatives alongside 
the old API.

If a library uses an obsolete library as an implementation detail, then 
it's not harming anybody.  The library can switch to a more modern 
implementation when and if this is convenient.
