To clarify, the point I was making there was that it was low priority
for us to change it until PHP deprecated it. The database code in WP
forms an important part of architecture that we're loathe to change if
not needed.
As noted in the current fix [1], we plan to remove the current code
which simply hides the deprecated notices and replace the database code
with a new mysqli/PDO-based database connector, however we're not done
on that yet.
