It' now as follows:

for MiNT:

refine ALLOW_TRP_CHG:
- change #define to S_SETEXC (mint/ssystem.h)
- possible values for arg in Ssystem(S_SETEXC,arg,0):
 -1: return current setting
  0: deny all
  1: deny trap-changes (numbers 0-15)
  2: allow all (default if not set by user)

vector=-1 (ask value) in Setexc is always allowed.

The name of config-variable for mint.cnf is ALLOW_SETEXC (was  
ALLOW_TRP_CHG).

for XaAES:

new config-variable:
allow_setexc (default:2)
restrict calls to Setexc by programs started after XaAES.
0: deny all
1: deny trap-changes (numbers 0-15)
2: allow all
