deprecate-policy-old
--------------------

* An explicit deprecation diagnostic was added for policy ``CMP0071``
  (``CMP0071`` and below were already deprecated).
  The :manual:`cmake-policies(7)` manual explains that the OLD behaviors
  of all policies are deprecated and that projects should port to the
  NEW behaviors.

* Compatibility with versions of CMake older than 2.8.12 is now deprecated
  and will be removed from a future version.  Calls to
  :command:`cmake_minimum_required` or :command:`cmake_policy` that set
  the policy version to an older value now issue a deprecation diagnostic.
