This is from w20-dmusys:

Now, I would argue that the compatibility link (which is what I assume
that's supposed to be) just shouldn't be there at all.  However, if it
is going to be there, then either (a) the cat file corresponding to it
shouldn't be there, or (b) the cat file should be up-to-date, which it
is not.
