We undeprecated it. RabbitMQ server supports auto-delete on exchanges
for 0-9-1 clients.

http://www.rabbitmq.com/releases/rabbitmq-java-client/v2.5.1/rabbitmq-java-client-javadoc-2.5.1/com/rabbitmq/client/Channel.html#exchangeDeclare(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, boolean, boolean, boolean, java.util.Map)

However, our 0-9-1 reference guide still leaves it as just a "reserved"
bit - http://www.rabbitmq.com/amqp-0-9-1-reference.html#class.exchange

I thought there was a bug about fixing this, but I can't find it. Our
json version fully undeprecates it:

http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-codegen/file/dfff9832e2d7/amqp-rabbitmq-0.9.1.json#l208

Whilst our xml version suggests it's still deprecated:

http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-dotnet-client/file/c3e4a852f309/docs/specs/amqp0-9-1.xml#l1270

What a mess!
