Right, but there's nothing to "restrict" because in this case we're
talking about a warning not an error; generating a warning that default
behavior will change in a future release.  OpenVPN _should_ 
continue happily along its way no matter where
the warning is generated.

It's a pretty trivial point really, but may provide a template
for future changes.
