config(8): Allow duplicate options to be specified
config(8)'s option handling has been written to allow duplicate options; if
the value changes, then the latest value is used and an informative message
is printed to stderr like so:
/usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/TEST: option "VERBOSE_SYSINIT" redefined from 0 to 1
Currently, this is only a possibility for cpu types, MAXUSERS, and
MACHINE_ARCH. Anything else duplicated in a config file will use the first
value set and error about duplicated options on subsequent appearances,
which is arguably unfriendly since one could specify:
include GENERIC
nooptions VERBOSE_SYSINIT
options VERBOSE_SYSINIT
to redefine the value later anyways.
