Where did you get these options from?

If they are apprpriate to Ultrix at all, they may or may not be configurable
in a binary system.  They would have to be used in some of the C code that
gets compiled during the config.  Also, some option changes do not trigger
recompilation of the appropriate sources, you must do a a "make clean" in
the target directory...
