Um ... the removed symbols were at the end of the WaitEventIO enum,
so is there really an ABI break?  I suppose if an extension contains
actual references to the removed symbols, it would fail to recompile,
which'd be annoying for a released branch.

On the whole, I agree that this patch had no business being committed
to v14.
