Exactly right, everything is free, including the segfaults. Furthermore, if
using these polymorphs you into a kobold, we never even knew you!
/unsupported directory is for the current release, and will contain mostly
_untested_ stuff (KDE2.01 is an exception). /cooker is for the
release-to-be, and it will be thoroughly tested by those using it and by a
corps of recruits once features are frozen. Of course, to follow good
testing practice, the testing begins at the time the concept is designed, but
we are not quite there yet.
