I don't have definitive information on this, but I think
what Dustin means is that the configure option will be
obsoleted by a change in the code that places limits
the block size.
I suspect the default tapeblocksize will continue to be 32K,
but there will no longer be an upper limit to the block size.
Thus no need for the configure option.
