I've just pushed this:


commit 1164fd158dc892739cc9ec8b770081b2770c047f

    undeprecate hv_bucket_ratio()
    
    This function was recently added, but marked as deprecated in embed.fnc.
    Based on this thread:
    
        http://nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/237486
    
    It looks like the 'M' (may change) flag is sufficient to capture what was
    intended. Removing the 'D' avoids every usage in core emitting a warning
    to STDERR during build, while it still adds a caution to the entry in
    perlapi.pod:
    
        NOTE: this function is experimental and may change or be
        removed without notice.
