And, as I said, putting this parameter in the config.c is DEFINITELY a 
bug.  I have not heard any cogent arguments on the subject.  Some BS 
about the CIB being unable to read the CIB in order to deal with a CIB 
parameter, and how there are complicated policies with regard to 
config_writes - which there aren't.

Unless I hear at least one rational argument (which hasn't happened so 
far), I'll remove the code from config.c - because it was clearly put in 
without proper thought or consultation.
