    Sure, that will work fine.  In fact, I made a slight change after 3
    people forgot to update their config and wound up with a maxusers of 8.
    So, in fact, you do not have to recompile the world or config for this
    change to be effective, you need only recompile the kernel.  Recompiling
    the world (or just config) will get rid of a harmless config-generated
    warning, however.
