$GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->sql(TYPO3_db, $query) is deprecated. It should 
have never been in t3lib_db at all. Note the TYPOP3_db argument is 
bogus. It isn't used by the function :-)

Use $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->sql_query($query) instead.

Or use this: $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']-> exec_INSERTquery($table,$fields_values)

Ever cared to look at the source code? I you had a look at the function 
you would have noticed it uses (as all core functions do!) 
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB'] for database access.

So you can use this function. It is currently not deprecated.
