     Oh, duh.  ;-)

     If it's an option, could we make it set AWRE/ARRE only if they
aren't already set?  It gives me the shivers to imagine an option that
always touches the mode pages at bootup (what happens when power
failures, bad SCSI cabling, bad termination, acts of God, etc. occur
when setting the mode page?).
