Could you name one?  I can't think of any, but I'm not sure I'm thinking
along the same lines you are.

I didn't ask for any defaults to be changed.  The code only makes a
difference when -DNO_DEFAULT_LISTENER is passed on the command line, and no
one but the Solaris packages need do that.  I specifically wanted to avoid
changing any defaults that others might be relying on.
