is ptr() function on `RegisterBlock`'s actually deprecated or not?

[TDHolmes]

I see that the ptr() function to get the pointer to the register block has the comment "to be deprecated in 0.7", but it's already 0.7 and it isn't deprecated... was this just missed or is it no longer the plan?

some context: #235 (comment) / #235

Oops, I think this was simply missed for 0.7. We can deprecate it in the existing 0.7 series though, and remove it for 0.8.

I think this can be closed, right?
