notify was reworked heavily for the 4.2.0 release.  So, take your pick 
on the verbage:

Because the old notify was so well-tested through years of use that 
leaving it available to users for fallback purposes seemed appropriate.

Because some people were scared of the changes that went into notify in 
4.2.0.  So the old notify was left there for them to use instead of 
fixing the new one... if ever there were any problems.

Because a number of people had notify customizations that didn't apply 
cleanly to the new notify, and they wouldn't complain so much about the 
changes if they didn't need to port their customizations.

Because the new notify would be lonely without its mommy.
