Ok, then three questions:

1. Is there then now a way to "turn off -nh"?
So that wget does not distinguish between domain names of the same IP?
Or is this option irrelevant given the net's current structure?

2. Wouldn't it be a good idea to mention the d
eletion of the -nh option in a file? 
Or was it already mentiones and I am too blind/stupid?

3. on a different aspect:
All command lines with -nh that were created before 1.8 are now
non-functional, 
except for the old versions of course.
Would it be possible that new wget versions just ignore it and 
older versions still work.
This would greatly enhance (forward) compatibility between different
versions, 
something I would regard as at least desirable?
