Okay.  I'm going to guess that I mark it as deprecated by removing the 
VLC_BANDS_TEXT and VLC_BANDS_LONGTEXT defines and replacing add_bool( 
"equalizer-vlcfreqs", ... ) with add_obsolete_bool( "equalizer-vlcfreqs" 
).  That's the only other way I can think of to indicate that the 
variable is deprecated.  I was wondering whether this is what you want.
