For stable branches, the kernel ABI compatibility ensures that old binaries can
still run on new kernels. i.e., 13.3 kernel with 13.2 userland. But not the
opposite.

I think that is a good example to illuminate the ABI compatibility issue.

Run daemon(8) from FreeBSD 13.3 on 13.1:
```
root@:~ # /tmp/daemon -l daemon echo OK
ld-elf.so.1: /tmp/daemon: Undefined symbol "kqueuex@FBSD_1.7"
```

The parent does return 0. The child will complain with "Undefined symbol".
