Hello All!

We advertise that legacy symbols will be removed after two years.
However, so far, we've be more lax than that, and we only dropped
symbols after about 5 year have elapsed.

This series removes options in step, starting with the usual 5-year
threshold, in 1-year increments, to eventually catch-up with the
advertised 2-year threshold.

Additionally, a little shell snippet is added in the comments, to
help eventually drop those legacy symbols when they are still used
elsewhere (e.g. as legacy defaults).

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
