The option still exists and is effective. See current line 3528 of 
fftool/ffmpeg_opt.c and the block at line 822 of fftool/ffmpeg_filter.c

That's a Libav no-op commit. It was merged in 
42f5fc716e932b7b015d6605f2d88fc0eea4488b.

Interestingly, the option was already deprecated at the time of merge 
but Michael then kept the option and replaced its code with yadif 
injection in 2013 in 4257b804e2354db07e66ebfd966d7d13f49c7895. However, 
he did not remove the deprecation notice.

So, if that deprecation stands, we can remove the option/doc/code 
altogether, else remove the deprecation notice.
