Yes!

Consider the note on the bottom of every BSD related man page, which refers
the reader to the instructions for building BSD stuff in our SV system.

The gist is that in 3.2 and before, we chose '-I/usr/include/bsd -lbsd' as
the switch for saying "do BSD stuff".  There are certain things that differ
between SV and BSD, so that one cannot be in both universes at once.  You
have to choose, for example, which kind of directories you want.  A
future release will have other ways of saying the same thing, altho they
will be upward compatible.
