The problems with current init is that
1. The vc-base parameter needs documentation

What should be done, really, is ability to don't specify vc-base at all, and 
don't default it to "vc6" or anything.

Hmm... I don't understand the above... maybe you've pasted only part of what 
you've intended to paste.
