Actually, it would make alot more sense to do both, modify the source 
and load the module with the timingonly=1 option. 

That way you set the correct behavior by default so a simple modprobe 
wctdm would work if you forgot the option, and also have a backup if you 
upgrade your zaptel source down the road and forget that you need to set 
timingonly=1 before compiling.
