Instead, I'd suggest deprecating System.IO.catch and perhaps the rest of the IOError support in System.IO. It is all available from System.IO.Error and Control.Exception anyhow.

That sounds like a sensible separation. You'd also want System.IO.Error to export the IOError versions of catch and try (which it doesn't now).
