 Most fs functions let you omit the callback argument. If you do, a default
-callback is used that rethrows errors. To get a trace to the original call
-site, set the NODE_DEBUG environment variable:
+callback is used that ignores errors, but prints a deprecation
+warning.
 
-    $ cat script.js
-    function bad() {
-      require('fs').readFile('/');
-    }
-    bad();
-
-    $ env NODE_DEBUG=fs node script.js
-    fs.js:66
-            throw err;
-                  ^
-    Error: EISDIR, read
-        at rethrow (fs.js:61:21)

+**IMPORTANT**: Omitting the callback is deprecated.  v0.12 will throw the
+errors as exceptions.
