Log Message:
Remove compat_ibcs2 from i386. After a discussion on port-vax, it turns
out that compat_ibcs2 does not implement the iBCS2 standard - which is
x86-specific - but rather SVR3. Our real iBCS2 implementation was a
mixture of compat_ibcs2 and compat_svr4, and was only partial. Keeping
support for this in i386 is totally irrelevant today. I also asked on
port-i386 but didn't wait long.

The main issue is that compat_ibcs2 should have been called compat_svr3.
But CVS does not support renaming files, and moving things around is both
painful and tiring, even more so when no one seems to be interested in
doing this work or in the feature at all. For now compat_ibcs2 is available
on Vax and will stay, until someone (not me) cleans it up.
