I'm not entirely convinced either.  But, if you and Mike reach a
consensus on it, then I'm content to go with that.  Personally, I
don't buy the readability argument.

The ::options directive is in and by itself a great idea.  However, if
the decision is to go with a default of 9 digits for the 64-bit build,
then I think it is a must.

I gotta run now, I'll thing about a keyword that means "use the same
as the internal built-in setting".
