What about leaving disabled functions deprecated in git and removing it 
from distribution source tarballs?  Gerald (at least used to) do this 
upon release for -Werror, for example:

If I remember correctly, GTK/GLib removes deprecated functions at the 
next major version.  The downside of not remembering to fix them along 
the way would be a lot of extra work when the next major version came 
out.
