The FAQs should be handled the same as the documentation proper, i.e.,
there should be one copy in the devel-corner reflecting current sources
and one copy in the users-lounge reflecting earlier releases. Lots of
these have changed for 7.1, but that doesn't help those using 7.0 right
now.

FAQ is a stupid name anyway. Additional installation hints is better.
