Upps. Did not know that. However, that part does not work in FreeBSD at
all. And I do not use it in Ubuntu either. Consequently, it does nobody
prevent to secure those other parts.

As long-term solution, one could use signed downloads for those external
modules, and place a common public key into the tarball. That would
raise the dependencies only of the external modules (to OpenPGP [1] or
OpenSSL [2] for example). Even that could stay optional for the curious.
