Actually, it's because there is no responsibility to enforce somone
changing an interface being responsible for changing all consumers of
that interface.

Again, the existing X.25 code did not change, FreeBSD did.  It is not
the code which is unusable by FreeBSD, it is FreeBSD which i incapable
of using the code.

Engaging in finger pointing at static code sucks...
