    11= Parrot Deprecations for 3.0 = 
     2 
     3== .nci_call and .meth_call PIR special forms == 
     4 
     5Specifying the type of call being performed is no longer required thanks to the magic of virtual dispatch. 
     6 
     7=== Rationale === 
     8 
     9They're old, crufty, and don't do anything that cannot be acheived by .call. Except obfuscasion of course. 
     10 
     11=== Replacement === 
     12 
     13Use .call. It should be a simple text replacement fix.
