I still don't understand why you insist on making it YES by default. It
works fine like it is for most of the people right now.
So why shouldn't the few servers which have problems without it, enable
it? Make it a knob in rc.conf but off by default.
As I understand it, It suffices if the server requests the keepalives.
So if every FreeBSD-box has it on by default, I simply can not choose to
have no keepalifes anymore, even if I turn them off locally. So this
change is going to hurt somebody, somewhere.
