Which no one reads. So have the 'Makefile' not work unless you do something special ('make expert' first???). Then have this only documented in two places:
1. The Makefile with a strong warning that people running test kernels should really read the FAQ.
2. The FAQ itself.
Then respond to all questions like the one that prompted this thread with a note saying it is documented in the FAQ and giving it's location. Then IGNORE any further pleadings from the user. Of course, none of this is going to happen...
