  Log:
  SVN rev 207493 on 2010-05-02 06:18:57Z by imp
  
  MFC r207265:
    Require the option that's mapped be listed in the options file.  This
    will allow people with old config options to either have it just work
    (if config is new enough), or get a version error (if their config is
    about 7.0 or newer) rather than getting a cryptic error about
    duplicated options in the options file, or getting an error about an
    unknown option, at which point they'd update their config file only to
    learn they need a new config, only to learn they didn't really need to
    update their config file...  All this because our version checking was
    in the wrong place for the past decade...
  
    # hopefully this is the last change, and we'll be able to config with an
    # 8.0 GENERIC file on stable/8 after I merge this change and add the
    # compat options.
