Just as we have MI sys/conf/NOTES and MD sys/<arch>/conf/NOTES, would it make sense to have an MI sys/conf/GENERIC for the truly universal options, which could then be included by the MD sys/<arch>/conf/GENERIC versions? That would reduce duplication and make it easier to twiddle knobs like this across the board when needed.

If that sounds reasonable to people, I'll take a swing at that in August, when I get back from my vacation.

Thanks,
