Is this a fully valid alias or actually a deprecated function? (In which case
a deprecation warning might be useful.)
Well, I would say that nothing is offically deprecated unless it's
mentioned at
http://gretl.sourceforge.net/Backward.html and on that
criterion "ln" is not deprecated. But neither is it recommended. Let
sleeping dogs lie?
