You mean there are still architectures which don't support it? Sigh. I'd argue
that it should be in the default list, and config_require used to weed out
bits that don't have OS support. That's probably too much work, so it might
just be easier to just do known good architectures.

The 'monitor' token seems to be really popular, in particular.

Would that include any functional changes that would affect users? If not, I
suggest that the functionality is useful enough to have it enabled by default.

The code/headers were written to use config_require from the beginning, so
turning it on would only affect linux, until other architectures were ported.
