I administer four completely different types of unix daily, and
occasionally meddle with things like VMS, OS/2, MacOs 7-9 and X, and
some old systems still running DOS5/6. In all of these I've never
seen that particular kernel option. Aha! Therefore I conclude that it
must be a Microsoft thing. But I wouldn't expect everyone here to have
broad enough experience to be able to work that out like I did :-)

It's easy to forget our diversity and neglect to mention the OS
we're talking about, and I have done it myself a few times. No shame
in that, a heartfelt "oops" and the incident is forogtten. Jeez, if we
can't confess ignorance or fix a mistake and get over it in this forum,
where _can_ we?
