Setting The System Date/Time

I'm writing an app that would benefit from being able to change the system date/time, but it seems that we as cocoa programmers aren't meant to do this any more...
From the docs ( http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Carbon/ Reference/Date_Time_an_nt_Utilities/DeprecationAppendix/ AppendixADeprecatedAPI.html#//apple_ref/c/func/SetDateTime )


SetDateTime
Changes the date-time information stored by the system to the specified value, expressed as the number of seconds elapsed since midnight, January 1, 1904. (Deprecated in Mac OS X v10.4. There is no replacement.)



SetTime
Changes the date-time information in the system to the specified value, expressed as a date and time. (Deprecated in Mac OS X v10.4. There is no replacement.)


As these have no replacements, I am led to believe that I shouldn't be doing this. Am I right?
