I don't see any problem to do so. On my 7 default install,
there's /compat@ -> usr/compat, and /usr lives on a separate
partition.

As long as the symlink is present, it should not be a problem.
I see that you're suggestion /usr/local/compat instead of the
default /usr/compat - maybe it's worth providing an additional
symlink compat@ -> local/compat from within /usr?
