--- Comment #17 from Brooks Davis <brooks at FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Joe Barbish from comment #16)

As a project we DO NOT remove documented features from branches after the .0
release.  This sometimes mean we continue shipping a feature we had intended to
remove as is the case for the jail_* variables.  It happens, we move remove it
later and move on (I've removed code with decade "remove this soon" comments.

On top of existing policy, removing this compatibility has little value that I
can see so we would cause harm to users for no real purpose.
