Oh, I see, privilege-seperation built into sfp + ssh client + other things it does are strange, so instead link-all-the-libraries into one binary's address space, especially great since will have to access the ssh keys, and there are no mitigations! Once again, a privilege-seperation mitigation technology. Next exercise: building ssh client support into the browsers!
