IIRC (and I could definitely be wrong here) a simple find/replace
breaks the ability to handle more than one file being dragged at a
time, which is why I left it (it used to work fine even though it was
flagged as deprecated).

Obviously that doesn't matter if it now no longer works at all, but we
need to retain backwards compatibility so any patch will have to work
on GNUstep and older versions of macOS. The bottom of nsterm.h shows
how we've handled that with previous deprecations.

Can you check whether your patch handles the multi-file case?
