So let's try to be constrictive about this one - as I already said, the 
situation about MK* is at least consistent now, have a look at the mess 
that was there before.

If the description of the NO* variables is all that should be moved back 
to bsd.README, let me know.

If there are other changes that need to be done for consistency, which 
ones?

I agree that it would be good if someone wants to turn bsd.README into a 
manpage, but this won't be me.

In general, I'd appreciate if I wouldn't have to clean up documentation at 
all... maybe our project management can try to do something about that.
The current situatio is very suboptimal.
