Wouldn't it be possible to use a private ioctl that told userland whether
or not the entry points are supported (and whatever else it needs to check
for), and have ndd issue that? Yes, it'd be a bit ugly, but (a) it can
go away once the conversion is complete and (b) it ensures the message is
provided to someone who can do something about it.
