Two minor points

 - Is it obvious to everybody what is the implication of using
   "verbatim" (which in turn would bring the readers to realize why
   it often deserves a warning)?  If not, would it make sense to
   explain why "verbatim" may (may not) be a good idea in different
   situations?

 - I am not sure a deprecated synonym deserves a separate paragraph.

   ... silently exported, and with 'warn-verbatim' (or `warn`, a
   deprecated synonym), they will be exported with a warning.

   may be less irritating to the eyes, perhaps?

It would be preferrable to do s/WARN/WARN_VERBATIM/ at this step, as
the plan is to deprecate "warn", even if you are going to redo the
enums in later steps.  May want to consider doing so as a clean-up
iff this topic need rerolling for other reasons.

I didn't look at the surrounding existing tests, but in general
"test -s err" is not a good ingredient in any test.  The feature you
happen to care about today may not stay to be be the only thing that
writes to the standard error stream.
