Quoting the draft:

"many of these functions have been taken over by ICANN, ccTLDs and gTLDs"

RFC 1032 covers that with:

"until it becomes feasible for other appropriate organizations to assume those
 responsibilities.".

"The description of the Nicname/Whois service made there has been obsoleted by RFC 3912"

RFC 3912 updates the specification of the WHOIS protocol only.

The Whois service provides a contact point for administrative, policy and technical questions about the domain. Although some information in RFC 1032 is dated, it remains useful and is still widely used as a guide for troubleshooting technical issues.

The reasons for moving RFC 1032 from status UNKNOWN to status HISTORIC are light. Such a move would have a negative impact on active usage as RFC 3912 does not document the contact point for problems concerning a domain.
