+1, yeah, I think this could go.

+1, I think we have replaced most if not all of this with the agg render 
if there is any major missing overlap with agg, than we might want to 
write bugs against agg render

-0, is there a replacement for this functionality? If so, then I'm +1, 
but I think this is otherwise useful functionality. I know a bunch of 
people that use this to generate a large static image with imagemap that 
they put on web pages that do not have mapserver running on them.

+1, as I have never used it and I think it is fully supported via gdal

What about native geotiff support? this is deprecated and unsupported 
and the last I used it something broke and I was told to compile in gdal.
