When designing RT-11, we tried to limit SET options to be
only those things which choose between multiple options, not
whether something was 'fixed' or not. If it needs fixing, it
needs fixing and should be always on.
I would hope this policy would be maintained, even if this
is a hobbyist effort, otherwise the spirit behind the way
things were done in RT is lost.
