 Well, just to be on the safe side here, since the FAQ is supposed to
 document stuff for previous versions too, can we leave it there?  Or
 perhaps, add a small note that "versions of FreeBSD newer than 4.4
 don't need -w to work".
 
 NOTE: I haven't checked when -w was deprecated on the 4.X branch, but
 we can do that later, if this looks a nice idea, I guess.
