Like -no-fd-bootchk, this could be deprecated but it can be done
separately---and would slightly worsen documentation, so I'm leaving
it aside for now.

At this time, I don't think touching these options is a good thing.

On one hand, it is all over the internet, suggested when some old
OS doesn't work.

On another hand, these aren't used often these days.  This particular
option isn't necessary with windows 2000, at least with two different
kits of it which I have locally.  So finding the thing when you actually
need it (if it gets moved elsewhere) will be difficult.

On yet another, the code to handle this stuff is small enough and does
not require much to maintain, -- at least for now, maybe in future it
will be more difficult.

Thanks,
