I don't think we don't want to deprecate them...

Let's see...  gv is dumped in Emacs, right?  (At least that's what
"emacs -Q" seems to tell me.)  In which case...  wouldn't it be just as
natural to move the setters to other preloaded files where they more
naturally belong, like env.el for the getenv setter, etc?
