Several elements in lib.dom.d.ts used to have a createTextRange method:

createTextRange(): TextRange;

You can see that somehow this got dropped between the old (left) and 2.x (right) libs:

According to @zhengbli this is a break because this is an IE-only API. Users can augment the interfaces if necessary.
