It's worse than that -- in 2.2.x, stepconf will always use a mode called
"doublestep", in which step pulse width is limited to 1/4 of the
BASE_PERIOD by the hardware driver even though the GUI will appear to
accept larger values.

This is an unfortunate limitation, but the changes to stepconf to fix it
are too invasive to be put in 2.2.x.

For machines which require the step pulse width to be fairly wide,
you're stuck hand-editing inifiles for the time being.  By starting with
the sample-configs "stepper" directory, you can add the appropriate
"setp stepgen.#.steplen" settings to your pinout.hal file.
