I see:

#define TFTP_MTU_BLOCKSIZE 1468blksize
static unsigned short TftpBlkSizeOption=TFTP_MTU_BLOCKSIZE;

                /* try for more effic. blk size */
                pkt += sprintf((char *)pkt,"blksize%c%d%c",
                                0,TftpBlkSizeOption,0);

but that is it...

No CONFIG_ options for anything else?
