What about the following:

qemu_deprecated_option("old_option", "modern_option");

Which would then print (in normal operation)

"WARNING: 'old_option' is deprecated and will be removed; use 'modern_option' instead"

to the monitor (or to stderr? to both?).

If you start QEMU with a -no-deprecated-options switch, it would print

"ERROR: 'old_option' is deprecated and will be removed; use 'modern_option' instead"

and do an exit(1).

Would that be workable?
