1. the implementation that we have is minimalist, having a more complete
   one is not a luxury;
2. take advantage of the required chnage to increase the quality of the
   package's content;
3. I don't get what you wish to do; what "system isaexec"? I don't see
   one on my Solaris 10.

If you don't have the time do do it, send me the source and I'll do it.
