 Hi, Juho!
 
 Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
 
 As far as I can tell, the variable is still 'kern.quantum' in 4.X.
 
 This is a problem that occurs whenever a new major version
 is released; there exists a need for multiple versions of the
 documentation to match the "real world."
 
 I believe that doc team is attempting to make a way to
 automatically build the docs with "For 4.X do this,
 for 5.X do that", but I cannot guess when this will be
 accomplished (and I can't find that thread ATM...) ;-)
 
 We'll try and keep you posted.
