关于crutch(ed)

21世纪crutch动词用丁字形拐杖支撑，我查了OED，居然只有比喻意义上的支持，好像没有字面意思的。
还有crutched 拄着丁字形拐杖的，好像也没人用这个意思。

和十字架有关的crutched好像是从crouch来的，和crutch关系比较间接，虽然同源。

一本词典查不到，就多查几本：
crutch n. 拐杖 → vt. 用拐杖支撑 → 支持
crutched PP → a. 用拐杖支撑的

我知道有些词典这么写，但我真没看到这么用的，常见的就是crutched friar，OED中动词三个例句都不是字面意思：

transitive. To support as with a crutch or crutches, to prop.

1682 N. Tate & J. Dryden 2nd Pt. Absalom & Achitophel 13  Two Fools that Crutch their Feeble sense on Verse.

1833 D'Israeli in New Monthly Mag. 37 432  The genius of Moliere..in its first attempts..did not move alone; it was crutched by imitation.

1890 Caine in Pall Mall Gaz. 28 June 5/2  This sickly Government, crutched by Lord Hartington and Mr. Chamberlain.

1682—1890

你要知道，词典收录的释义、例句并不全面。

I waited with Abubaker and the man with the crutches who I had gotten to dance and air-guitar on his support and his family. He suffered from a kidney issue and had come to Egypt for medical treatment. 此处有省略 “We have a saying here,” the crutched man said, “Bin hibele haya – I love life.” He was grinning.

I have been living in Helsinki for 4 years, and finally I got pick-pocketed for the first time. I was at the shopping center at Itakeskus, and there's a crutched man, about twenty or thirty-something, looking like an European but not quite a Finn. He's walking toward the main door so I kept it opened for him. When he was near me he suddenly tripped against me. I even asked if he's ok.

好，OED的crutched的词条看来是写得不好，虽然还没有动词crutch字面意义的例子。
