One can only wonder why the rootkit detectors still believe this file is dangerous after more than two years, yes. > What is using this file, anyway? The file is created to make sure programs and scripts starting very early in the boot can know if it is possible and safe to write to /lib/init/rw/. Not much is using it yet, but I believe that area might be key to solving the problems associated with the event based kernel very early in the boot.
