That option is to disable deprecated elements in Geany's plugin API.
Why disable GTK+/GLib deprecated symbols when disabling Geany's ones? Anyway, an update of the configure help should be nice in this case, because the current message is "--disable-deprecated Disable deprecated GTK functions". It's not that clear at all, is it? But I think it is nice to be able to disable GTK+/GLib deprecated symbols too :)
Oops, sorry I hadn't checked it ;-) Enrico - shouldn't they be separate?
Actually I'm just completely wrong, this has nothing to do with the plugin API - sorry ;-/
Yeah :). The help text for this option is completely correct and IIRC this option is older than Geany's plugin API. I added it long time ago more or less just out of curiosity to check what and how Geany compile with these flags set.
We could discuss about the relevance of this option but well, there are more important things to talk about. It just doesn't harm as long as nobody uses it :). If you want to remove it, feel free to do so.
