I would prefer not as well, however...

The current version of manaworld is broken in F-9, due to incompatibilities
with the central manaworld game servers.  But in order to upgrade manaworld,
guichan also needs to be updated.

The last time I checked, there were only 3 packages that used guichan: sear,
manaworld, and ballz.

* sear is already using an older compat-guichan-05 package
* ballz is already using the latest guichan in rawhide, and should not be a
problem rebuilding against guichan-0.8.1, or just using compat-guichan07
* manaworld upgrade requires guichan 0.8.1

But since there may be end-user packages that have been built against
guichan0.7, it is better to introduce the short-lived compat package instead of
risking breaking end-user packages.
