I case you're wondering what brought these trivial changes on...

A couple years back I was thinking "I wonder how many
(fboundp 'thing-that-is-definitely-in-emacs) calls there are in Emacs",
and then I forgot all about it.

But I remembered tonight, so I wrote a little snippet that went through
all the symbols in simple.el (as an example of a preloaded .el file in
Emacs) and grepped a bit.

I only did a handful of symbols, because deciding what to do about it
all takes a bit of typing, and I have to check whether it's an
externally maintained package, because then I can't remove compat
code...  it would have been nice if those files were marked in some
way...

Anyway.

There's probably some Ks of code that can be removed by spelunking this
way.
