 This at least would break POLA as most up-to-now users of the port expect to
 still use the "long" knob-names.
 
 Also up to now there is code in the Makefile which sets different defaults
 for different OSVERSIONs. As this only applies to OSVERSION < 602107 I think
 that could be deleted from the Makefile.
 
 In summary I'm asking for advice from the ports-people:
 
 	- Should code be added to still support the long option names, e.g.
 	  WITH_MUTT_COMPRESSED_FOLDERS equally to WITH_COMPRESSED_FOLDERS?
 	  Or is a respective hint in UPDATING enough?
 
 	- Can the code for OSVERSION less than 602107 been deleted?
 
 Regards
 
 Udo.
