Its use is quite widespread in Gnus addons.  I think we should add:

(defalias gnus-point-at-bol 'line-beginning-position)
(make-obsolete 'gnus-point-at-bol 'line-beginning-position "Gnus 5.12")

Same for other recently removed functions.

What about using `point-at-bol' instead.  Since I belive that's
what XEmacs calls it, and Emacs has aliases for it.  Unless
XEmacs has aliases for `line-beginning-position'.

Gnus is using point-at-bol now, but old Gnus add-on are still calling
gnus-point-at-bol, and fail.  I believe adding the above would make
those add-on to continue to work.
