At some future point, either you're going to be running on a horribly 
outdated, unsupported, unpatched php with script kiddies worldwide 
exploiting your vulnerabilities (if you control your php version), or the 
website is going to break when whoever controls your php version (ie the 
hosting provider) upgrades to a version that no longer has the functions 
that you're currently getting deprecation warnings for (if you don't 
control the php version).

Personally I'd consider both of these futures sub optimal, and that 
fixing the code to use whatever functions replace the deprecated ones was 
better.

Better to fix it now in a controlled manner before the functions are 
removed completely, rather than later in a panic because the website is 
down.
