20041221:
         By a popular demand, a lot of NOFOO options were renamed
         to NO_FOO (see bsd.compat.mk for a full list).  The old
         spellings are still supported, but will cause annoying
         warnings on stderr.  Make sure you upgrade properly (see
         the COMMON ITEMS: section later in this file).

It's a little oblique, but it does say to make sure to upgrade the
system.
