Re: Going, going, GUCs!

Why? Are they causing problems leaving them there? What sorts of
problems will arise by *removing* them? I know with OACS,
add_missing_from is required right now, but that code *should* be fixable,
and there is an overwhelming reason from an advancement perspective to
having it removed (ie. new code that Tom is developing), but what about
the rest ... ?
