Thats been the million dollar question lately... there has been quite a
bit of complaints about this patch... but note the check does do some
correct sanity checking so the changes it point would be a good
thing to do....

But with that said, I would if making it a warning first, giving
people time to clean up their setups and then making it an
error later on...


Can't it be made to automatically set the nosharecache flag if it's needed?
thats is an idea that has been kicked around but it turns out it
becomes very messy very quickly...

steved.
