We should make it an error if someone tries to build an ARM kernel with
COMPAT_FREEBSD6. I think there was some support for ARM in 6, however we
have switched the ABI since then so any old programs will now fail to
run.

Having it would be even more of a bug on armv6. This was added for 10.0
and, given running arm (v4/v5) programs on an armv6 kernel is
unsupported there should be no reason to include it in the kernel.
