Well if you could fix the interop by changing a setting away from its
current default, at least you have a workaround.  And I would think the
other value for the setting exists for a reason too.

I don't recall what this change is, so no idea.  I am just saying in
general changing defaults in a program that doesn't keep default values
in the config file is hazardous.

link-detect is still not on by default (and while I certainly always
want it on, I would not suggest changing the existing default behaviour.)
