We don't have an acceptable replacement for it yet. Joel's read_insn function is the logical thing to do, but it defeats the purpose of deprecating the function in the first place --- encouraging people to pass context information explicitly --- to depend on current_frame. There isn't any way at present to pull it off. So I think the deprecation was premature.
