I'm hearing two options here:
1) Name the new function bcpowmod() to keep it similiar to existing
functions, we'll worry about renaming the functions in this module
later...
2) Name the new function bc_powmod(), rename the existing functions now,
and create aliases. Possibly introduce an ini option to control whether
or not deprecated functions are enabled or not.
#2 Sounds like "The Right Way" to do it, but also sounds like something
which needs a strong consensus before implementing and should perhaps be
put off till the next revision (4.4 or 5.0 -- whichever it winds up being)
