  Yes, this options is default "off". And this means that
  Zap and VTSwitch is allowed.( no dontzap)
  If option "DontZap" is "off" that means
  that Ctrl-Alt-Bs should work.
  Nonetheless the option DontVTSwitch acts as expected
  but DontZap doesn't.
  As I think it is embedded into source or into
  default compilation options that we are   forced ( if need)  to
  apply some things which   wasn't required before.
  As least if xorg is compiled with hal.
  By the way Ubuntu and Fedora have the package named dontzap.
  Why:)
