Hmm. This makes me a bit uncomfortable. I'm worried that we are
going to get a ton of bug reports from people who get caught out in
the code, despite the warning. Maybe we should invert the sense of
the option. e.g. NO_COMPAT_DF12.

or we add something like nooptions COMPAT_DF12

like NetBSD did. inverts the sense in config. Default on, nooptions = off.

cheers
