bug-compatible
[common] Said of a design or revision that has been badly compromised by a requirement to be compatible with {fossil}s or {misfeature}s in other programs or (esp.) previous releases of itself. "MS-DOS 2.0 used as a path separator to be bug-compatible with some cretin's choice of / as an option character in 1.0."
