This appeared as perhaps an arbitrary deletion change for some
unknown non-discussed reason. Someone else posted the problems,
user features, and alternatives that would preserve and update use of
OPIE options for FreeBSD users, but again, no one discussed.
So now users are getting locked out and have one less security
option available to them in FreeBSD.

There is still good opportunity therein to restore some
implementation of it for FreeBSD.
