It didn't work the first time I added that, but it might be because of
other errors I had at that time. I'll recheck that to be sure.
I now remember why I did it...
PPUs are entry based and symtables (tstoreddef) don't have a PPU entry
for themselves. They "only" write two entries: one for the defs and one
for the symbols. So if I wouldn't have introduced a new entry for the
options I would have broken all read operations when they'd read that
new PPU or I would have needed to add the value to either the symbol
entry or the def entry (both solutions are rather unclean).
So yes, the entry is needed.

Sven
