-.Ss2 Important note regarding ABI change on ARM ports
-.Pp
-In
-.Nx
-7.0, most ARM ports (all but acorn32, and epoc32) have switched
-to the official standard ABI
-.Pq EABI5
-which is recommended by ARM for ELF binaries.
-.Pp
-Backwards compatibility is provided for binaries using the previous ABI
-.Pq oabi .
-A
-.Nx
-\*V
-kernel with the
-.Dv COMPAT_NETBSD32
-option enabled will allow you to execute oabi binaries.
-This option is enabled in the kernels distributed with this release.
-.Pp
-However, new binaries can not be mixed with old libraries, and shared
-libraries are incompatible.
-.Pp
-.Ic sysinst
-does not provide an automatic mechanism to partially upgrade an old
-installation.
-There are two ways to handle the transition:
-.(enum
-.Pp
-Do a complete update.
-.Pp
-This means updating your system with
-.Ic sysinst ,
-then deleting and recompiling all other binaries, whether they were
-installed locally or through pkgsrc.
-This is the preferred, cleanest approach.
-.It
-Move your old binaries and libraries to
-.Pa /compat/netbsd32
-and replace them one by one.
-.Pp
-For example, move all of
-.Pa /usr/pkg
-to
-.Pa /compat/netbsd32/usr/pkg
-and add
-.Pa /compat/netbsd32/usr/pkg/bin
-to the end of your PATH.
-Most binaries should still run, and can be replaced over time with
-recompiled packages, which will install to
-.Pa /usr/pkg
-again.
