Short course:  sub() was an undocumented method in 3.2, unused by either ZODB or Zope; was dropped in 3.3; and had nothing to do with subtransactions anyway.  I *suspect* that anyone calling it was simply confused, thinking it did something it didn't actually do.

Transaction.sub() is now called Transaction.savepoint(). However, there is no backwards compatibility deprecation link. Same goes for abort()/rollback(). Shouldn't there be? If not, then the old transaction API is not su much "deprecated" as simply not there. ;)
