At least, the new symbols must not go into the FBSD_1.3 namespace, but
into the current namespace of the HEAD at the tome of commit.  I believe
it will be FBSD_1.6 when the patch has a chance to hit the tree.

I also think that more specific name, indicating that this is a FreeBSD
unique function, should be used.

I cannot usefully comment on the actual collate code changes.
