I assume that should be "This variable is obsolete, it should always be nil (which is the default)." Otherwise, what's the point of a variable which should never be changed? Might also be an idea to insert code which gives a warning if it is non-nil. The warning could display the doc string you gave: > If, for > example, you wish to not use NOV (see below) with the `nntp' back > end (*note Crosspost Handling::), set `nntp-nov-is-evil' to a > non-`nil' value instead of setting this.
