 QUOTA"

 The compat_50 module is built with the assumption that ``options
 QUOTA'' is available in the kernel.  If your kernel does not contain
 the option, then you have to build the module without the option by
 editing src/sys/modules/compat_50/Makefile and removing the relevant
 CPPFLAGS line.
 
 Perhaps someday the QUOTA option will be its own stand-alone module,
 but that day has not yet arrived.
 
 Note that the same issue arises for ``options WAPBL''...
