It may need to look at THE partition (i.e., the partition on which a file 
is actually being deleted, although for a home directory that would still 
be erroneous; it needs to look in the home directory, not the mountpoint 
of the home partition); it certainly does not need to look at EVERY 
partition the system can access, even when no deletion has actually 
occurred.

This is quite unworkable on anything but a standalone desktop PC.  We had 
to disable the trash demon (chmod a-x) before we could deploy Hardy in our 
environment.  Our environment is rather typical of managed Linux/UNIX 
systems.

Thanks,

Brent
