Case in point: the SCCS history for $SRC/uts/common/inet/ip/ip.c
currently has over 4K lines of text.  Scrolling past that much rubbish
on every viewing of the file would be quite annoying.

(And that's likely not even the complete history, as we once used a
different source code control system.  :-/)

Just say 'no' to "$Log$."  It looks attractive, but it's a crime for
anything other than toy projects.
