I seem to have made it "default n" but I don't recall why. Possibly I
just didn't realise that people would be building a single SeaBIOS for
multiple uses -- I expected that folks would build one tailored to their
specific usecase. Or maybe it's just a hangover from my being used to
Linux's policy of defaulting things like this to off...
