No.

ChangeLog-2006 points at:

http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2006-11/msg00340.html

where we see that REALTIME_LO/HI were defined in target headers,
while they should really be native/host defines. So it's not that they
got deprecated, but a target/host confusion bug was fixed. The
macros are still there in common/signals.c.

Can you be more specific? What multiple layers?
