 $ ls /usr/compat
 ls: /usr/compat: No such file or directory
 $ ls -ld /compat
 drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel        3 Jan 17  2010 compat
 
 It isn't a symlink on my system. At what point in installation is it 
 supposed to have been created? I don't see a mention of that anywhere in 
 the Handbook. Chapter 11.2 even refers to /compat/linux instead of 
 /usr/compat/linux.
