Kino still uses the legacy raw1394 iso interface for capture by default;
however, it can also still use dv1394. I will accellerate the adoption of the
new raw1394 interface since I have already done this for dvgrab 2.0.
Cinelerra supports libiec61883 now.

Unfortunately, gstreamer still uses legacy raw1394 iso interface, but I can
nag someone at Fluendo. I think another high profile app that might be
affected is GnomeMeeting/Ekiga, but I have not kept close track of it.

Also, I have not released a version of libraw1394 that contains the
deprecation warnings, but I can do so this weekend. And then another release
when the removed kernel interfaces are released that removes the functions.
