Can anyone explain to me what this does?
From the doco:
g_forceLimboHealth (0) will toggle between ET’s default force limbo health and RTCW’s force limbo health (0: -75, 1: -150)
I’m just not sure what it does, and if it is related to the fix:
It now takes twice as much damage to force a dead player into limbo
Thanks for any help.

0 = -75 health forces a medicable body into limbo
1 = -150 health to force them
-150 was how RTCW worked
-75 was default in ET
gib health is hard coded into the game as -175
its for if a body is waiting for a medic, how much health they have to go down to before you force them to tap out
Thanks for the replies, but now it seems that there is a contradiction in the doco, or really, it just needs to be clarified.
The original “fix” line said:
That lead me to believe that it was “fixed”, that is, not configurable.
But going by your answer, it is actually configurable, so:
Using the cvar, if set to 0, it behaves like vanilla ET, that is the awful 3-4 bullet gib.
And if set to 1, it takes 150 health (double the amount of dmg).
Correct?
Iceman, yes that is correct.
Just FYI, I do believe I heard bani say RtCW had it at -175. I could be wrong, who knows 
limbo health and gib health are not the same thing.
The gib health is -175 for both RTCW and ET, and shrub does not change this.
ah ok, so like being hit by a grenade, panzer, falling a long way etc - how much damage you take before it makes you instant giblets, as opposed to being ABLE to be revived!?
If that’s the case, then the statement:
It now takes twice as much damage to force a dead player into limbo
isn’t exactly true, as it’s only true if you configure it on.
