I've put the following in the toplevel TODO file. We should
probably make 2.0 the next release after this.
Changes for Release 2.0
Break binary compatibility, but keep source compatibility.
* Add a 'void *' to all workspaces, to allow for future changes.
* Disable deprecated functions
* Fix up the workspace_alloc functions so they have consistent names
(add functions where needed, don't remove)

True, unfortunately I don't see any easy way round that.
