I really loathe those NOfoo=yes type of definitions. OK, so I have a tiny
brain, but it really does take me a while to work out what is negative and
what isn't.

I'm not sure it's going to stop any of the user errors that we've seen
reported - can we think of a better way to do this, please? e.g.

	_MKMAN= no

or something like that?

Thanks,
