No, I mean "COMPAT_11". Some time between 1.1 and 1.2 someone - Jason
Thorpe? - sent a mail to "current-users" that running X-Free86 requires
this option from now on due to some changes in the i386 I/O port handling.
An about "COMPAT_43":
It is neither mentioned in "README.NetBSD" coming with X-Free86 3.1.2
nor the one coming with 3.2, so it's probably not required. But because I
have this option in my kernel configuration file since I started using
the i386 port I can't say for sure.
