How about, in Makefile.inc1,
Check to see if NOFSCHG is set. If it is, print out an error
message which tells the user the "new way to do it", and abort.
I am only suggesting this for current. I don't know where
INSTALLFLAGS_EDIT should be documented, I assume it would be
any place which presently documents NOFSCHG ...
