I think it is short enough now.

I'm not sure if you were referring to the name of the internal variable or
the name of the server option or both.  I changed both to 'separatepoles'
anything longer is too long for the space it should fit in as a server
option.

I actually prefer just 'poles'.  The difference in clarity seems small and
'poles' is easier to remeber and less tedious.  However I don't feel
strongly either way.
