Haiku R1 (x86) was designed and is being implemented to be binary and source
compatible with applications written for BeOS R5 (x86) to a large extent, but
not the other way around. In some cases we deliberately broke source
compatibility while at the same time maintaining binary compatibility. Here are
some specific examples:

always part of the default header search path anyway, you can always just
