Ugh.  I was just asking myself why this was needed.  Bad me, of course 
we can't solve this problem with a .nanorc entry because the binary 
needs to be tiny, so --enable-nanorc wont be used.  I will commit that 
to CVS as soon as I can, which may not be until Monday unfortunately, 
or you or DLR can commit it if you have free time before that.  Hey at 
least I got the release done :P
