+ 4. There is a new compile-time option called ENABLE_DISABLE_FSYNC. You must
+    not set this option unless you really, really, really understand what you
+    are doing. No pre-compiled distributions of Exim should ever set this
+    option. When it is set, Exim compiles a runtime option called
+    disable_fsync. If this is set true, Exim no longer calls fsync() to force
+    updated files' data to be written to disc. Unexpected events such as
+    crashes and power outages may cause data to be lost or scrambled. Beware.
+
+    When ENABLE_DISABLE_FSYNC is not set, a reference to disable_fsync in a
+    runtime configuration generates an "unknown option" error.
