+	  This option influences the normal decompressor output for
+	  multiplatform kernels.  Normally, multiplatform kernels disable
+	  decompressor output because it is not possible to know where to
+	  send the decompressor output.
+
+	  When this option is set, the selected DEBUG_LL output method
+	  will be re-used for normal decompressor output on multiplatform
+	  kernels.
