samba - Feb 2008 - "passdb expand explicit" deprecated

Hello

i use samba 3.025c

testparm says that "passdb expand explicit" is deprecated

but it seems to be working (i mean if i put %N in sambaProfilePath with 
passdb expand explicit set to yes, it is expanded)

my question is : is this option deprecated?

according to releases notes, only default value has changed to no....

"Deprecated" does not mean that it shouldn't work. It just means
we
suggest you not to use this since we may remove this functionality in a 
future version of samba. Deprecation is a warning for the future removal.
