I wonder if they will deprecate the function after 2037?

nah, they will just add real_easter_date().

Wouldn't that be easter_real_date()?

They will probably go with one for a single release before leaving it deprecated for years and switching to the other but never remove it from the core.

There's already an easter_days(), and comments complaining that it doesn't revert to the Gregorian calendar before the 1700's... http://php.net/manual/en/function.easter-days.php
