+  This value can be used to disable the runtime verification of 
+  the digital signatures applied to afsd_service.exe and the 
+  OpenAFS DLLs it loads.  This test is performed to verify that 
+  the DLLs which are loaded by afsd_service.exe are from the 
+  same distribution as afsd_service.exe.  This is to prevent
+  random errors caused when DLLs from one distribution of AFS
+  are loaded by another one.  This is not a security test.  The
+  reason for disabling this test is to free up additional memory
+  which can be used for a large cache size.

+  Set a non-zero value and the pioctl() library will output status
+  information to stdout.  Executing command line tools such as
+  tokens.exe, fs.exe, etc can then be used to determine why the
