Binary compatibility on BSDI?

Should I label binaries built on BSDI 2.1 as i386-unknown-bsdi2.0?

Is there backward compatibility there? I've been too long away from 
BSDI to remember some of these issues.

There are backwards compatability problems.  FreeBSD would not run 2.1
binaries at one point even though it did run 2.0.  I should be able to
test the 2.1 build on a 2.0 machine, but you would be best to label it
2.1...
