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 ... ?
