bug-compatible: adj. [common] Said of a design or revision that
has been badly compromised by a requirement to be compatible with
fossils or misfeatures in other programs or (esp.) previous
releases of itself. "MS-DOS 2.0 used \ as a path separator to be
bug-compatible with some cretin's choice of / as an option character
in 1.0."
