Event Timeline

I think this requires more explanation.
Without this define the casper will work and use standard definition instead of "secure" implementation prepared for capsicum.
This allow to build a tools for FreeBSD without capsicum/casper support - for example for rescue or bootstrap.
Simply putting this define in front of includes will break this behaviour.

I see. Can you suggest better wording, or should I just abandon it and assume that users will figure it out?
