>Description:
If you build a kernel with 'options COMPAT_50' it will create a
sysctl variable kern.oboottime. However, the compat module does
not provide this variable. So, if you have older images that
require this variable, you cannot use the compat module.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Move the sysctl code out of kern/sysctl_init.c and into
kern/kern_time_50.c, and update compat/common/compat_mod.c to
initialize it.
