I *suspect* the purpose of some of these sections is that if it turns out
somebody needed them for their application, we could just tell them to
re-enable them there and there. If this is the case, then it has gone way
past abuse already, though. Some parts of been NOT_USED for many years and
most likely don't work anymore.
