[svn-r25061] Description:
Put back overloaded functions for backward compatibility: - were replaced by better prototyped versions, such as Attribute::getName. - were modified to add const to constant arguments. Added notes for future removal in documentation. Platforms tested: Linux/ppc64 (ostrich) Linux/32 2.6 (jam) SunOS 5.11 (emu)
