Yes, but while people are moving over to HOL90 it may be useful to have
documentation describing the anachronistic HOL88 identifiers and perhaps some
hint as to how their functionality can be achieved in HOL90. Maybe help files
for these identifiers could go in a separate directory from those for
identifiers that are actually implemented in HOL90?
