HPUX would be an issue too, as we never did figure out how to do
export control on that.  However, I doubt it would be a great idea
to back-patch export control in minor releases, even if we had
the patch at hand.  That would be an ABI break of its own, although
it'd only affect clients that hadn't done things quite correctly.
