> Should this be added to our legacy support library instead?
The C files, that might be a splendid idea. This way a few ports could use
a uniform legacy support instead of individual solutions for unnamed
(therefore safer?) semaphores. **My** wish is that `npth` is enhanced soon
that `GnuPG 2` can be used on older systems. As I mention in #61115 there
can be a number of users that have installed `GnuPG 2` and have now an
unusable software. I found this by trying to use `GnuPG 2` – and it failed
completely and I did not understand why. It took a long time until I found
this explanatory ticket…
