I'm cool either way. Projects differ about how rigid or flexible style can
be.
I noticed this when cleaning up another thing. If we can apply that advice,
I'd prefer that.

Maybe it's better to just drop this entirely. In the final state, this file
is
here, but none of these flags are actually used. Not sure why they aren't,
but there's commentary that's explicit about using the host constants
in many places. Rather than take the time to sort this all out right now
(it is a minor detail I think in the scheme of things compared to all the
other changes coming), I'd propose dropping this hunk entirely, and
revisiting when the merging is done...
