TEST_COMPAT is plausible, but the patch does of course need to address the
malloc test as well (with the appropriate version for obsoletion named in
the TEST_COMPAT call), and I think returning 77 (UNSUPPORTED) rather than
0 is appropriate in the fallback case, given that the (obsolete) feature
being tested *is* unsupported by the (new) port.
