Damn, you're right. It looked obvious, so I already applied it, but I 
clearly shouldn't have.

The whole "if EMBEDDED" thing is totally wrong, because those config 
options  very much_do_ exist even when non-embedded, it's just that then 
they always take their default valies.

Thanks for noticing.
