Hehe!

Let's replace them with prettier formats:

#=#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#
#
#  I prefer this style.  For Major Section headers, anyway.
#
#=#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#==#=#=#

#---------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# And of course, this style is alway popular for Minor Section headers.
#
#---------------------------------------------------------------------



Consider the coding style war begun...  Seriously, I'd prefer we don't
worry too much about the comment styles.

Yes, some of the structures annoy me, and I would organize some of the
conf files differently, and some files have more blank lines than I
would like, and others need some  carefully-place blank lines in my
opinion, and while we're discussing this, I think the style rules that
PR = "r0" should never appear in a recipe is baloney; I feel very
strongly that should appear in all recipes....  this could become quite
the can of worms, I think.  :-)


RFC_REMOVE_HASHLINES--;

Or, rfcRemoveHashlines-- if camelCase is your preferred style... :-)

Oops - or should that be:
