It's not a very sensible option though, since the single conf file
still seems to be built out of the multiple small files.  I can't
quite work out when it's built from them, but it contains all the
comments / fragments from the small files.  In any case it's not a
true single configuration file because it's autogenerated with some
weird macro badness.
