Oh, I missed that. That should probably work. I was actually helping
someone with a 1.5.3 server, so I don't think that's in there.

Users can still shoot themselves in the foot by setting the server
flags to true, but with the man patch, they'd at least be informed.
I'll respin with just the man page hunk.
