Having a different default on BSD than on other platforms strikes me as
asking for trouble (in particular, asking for obscure portability issues
to BSD systems that most developers don't test on).

There's also the meta-question of whether we need to make a decision at
all.  Marco's last message on this topic to debian-devel said basically
that he thinks the default should be set back to 0, so possibly this is
happening without our involvement?
