Here's a translation table:

  +---------------------+-----------------+----------------+
  |  with-wrapper-hook  |  foo-functions  |  add-hook      |
  +---------------------+-----------------+----------------+
  |  funcall            |  foo-function   |  add-function  |
  +---------------------+-----------------+----------------+

This replacement has already been done in buffer-substring, but we still
need to use the obsolete with-wrapper-hook in order to support the
corresponding obsolete filter-buffer-substring-functions variable.
