Actually it is a variable and it "just" needs to be aliased suitably,
depending on which Emacs version it encounters.  This should be done
with a macro in org-compat.el (which doesn't exist yet, see my attempt
at such a macro in another thread), then org can use the aliased name
only.  In general I'd say org-compat.el is in need of some love.

I don't know enough about its uses to help here.

I think one could also alias these (the prefix should be that of the
package where they come from), so that all uses within org use that
prefix.  That would probably leave one warning at the point where the
alias is defined, which could be wrapped into with-no-warning.
