This implementation of gets() does not conform to the ANSI C standard, but
I think it is a good idea to warn folk aginst using gets.  A reasonable
compromise might be to retain this non-conforming implementation of gets()
in the normal library, and add an ANSI C conforming version (without the
warning message) to a special library.  Then the ducumentation that
explains how to invoke a conforming implementation of the C compiler would
have to mention linking against the special library.
