That binary compatibility was quite incomplete and only considered
good enough for building the system and *NOT* for general or long-term
use.  Since we now have post-time_t-change snapshots for all archs, I
removed the compat code.  You should have followed the directions in
faq/current.html which specified removing all old packages and
installing new ones.  I guess you'll have to do that now...though
you'll now need to tell pkg_delete to not run any uninstall programs,
as they'll presumably fail.
