I think the decision has been made already (got to get that Xterm
installed in my gray matter one of these days... it's dangerous
to be offline for anything resembling minutes nowadays :) :) ).
I couldn't find a specific example either, nor did any testing
appear to tickle it, but also wasn't comfy with this and it
did seem like a bug just waiting to be hit us. Thanks
to Greg for making sure that others were looking at this. The
other feedback was about tmpnam and the UnixWare 7/SCO warnings
(the ap_getpass one I'm sure is innoculous, the mod_include
ones look weird). I'd like for us to settle on these as well.
