How do you determine what's 'safe' and what not? Once you
dereference any kernel struct pointer (e.g. struct proc or struct lwp),
there is incompatibility. Obviously it's not possible for a LKM
to do anything useful and be ABI safe.

If you really know what you are doing and you are 100% positive
it's safe, you can use modload -f. Be prepared for panics in that
case, which will be caused by the incompatible LKM.
