If the API is still present in our source tree, then the implementation probably does not belong under COMPAT_43. As I see it COMPAT_43 is to match an old ABI that one can no longer (on modern NetBSD) compile to. What you are describing sounds like "we have an API still, and we've had it since 4.3", which is not in my view COMPAT.
