Meanwhile, -m state lives on.

In all honesty, if you're going to obliterate things like this, it's arguably 
only fair to also implement something in your userland tools to catch the 
change, throw a deprecated warning and appropriately modify it to use CT 
instead.

I would argue the same for those who wish to see the death of -m state (myself 
included)
