It's not just stupid, it's entirely brain damaged, because a port (unlike

Debian .deb uses the same mechanism AFAIK). Whatever.

There isn't, indeed. There is, however, something fundamentally flawed
with Theo's perception of reality, and I'm this ->|<- close to dropping
OpenBSD in favour of $SECURE_OTHER_UNIX on my servers. The ipf incident
was sad but somehow justifiable. This is justifiable but stupid. *grrr*
