+o Allow easier adding and removing of options.
+
+  It should be possible to add or remove options, flags, etc.,
+  without regard to whether or not they are already defined.
+  For example, a configuration like this:
+
+       include GENERIC
+       options FOO
+       no options BAR
+
+  should work regardless of whether or not options FOO and/or
+  options BAR were defined in GENERIC.  It should not give
+  errors like "options BAR was already defined" or "options FOO
+  was not defined".
