Hi again,

This misses the point.  The big difference is that 1.7.0 is not that fa=

away, so it is not the time to tack on world-shaking changes.

So please substitute 1.8.0 or 1.9.0 for 1.7.0 in my message to Peff.

The point doesn=E2=80=99t change, though, which is that I think it make=
s no
sense to add a configuration variable for this before changing the
default.

Thanks for the clarification,
Jonathan
