I don't think it's possible in the sense of `make-obsolete' because the
expander is not a named function.
It would be possible to use `display-warning' within the body of the
setter, but that would only annoy users.
If necessary, we might add additional code to the `setf' macro to warn
about this form in particular during byte compilation.
