IMHO it doesn't make sense to suport IPC_OLD via the direct syscalls,
even for those architectures that started with them in the first place.
There are quite a few architectures that define
ARCH_WANT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION even though they started life after IPC_64
was added. They probably just forgot to adjust ipc/util.h back then.
