It is not trully POSIX mode, as was pointed out (to me) before. POSIXyzing
it would be a future project. For now, it would delay an already late
release.

About your patch: I would answer the same as to the Frank:
I do not like #ifdefs;
it misses the (non-existing) option for compatibility with early 7-CURRENT.

Also, it would provide quite non-obvious change in the behaviour. Usually,
COMPAT_XXX turns off the features, so you simply cannot execute something
without proper COMPAT_XXX. There, you would get wrong run-time behaviour.
