probably enjoy the multiple levels of admitted "obscurity features" (check the Brad Spengler vs. OpenBSD Team threads just about anywhere, Theo's quotes on w^x being an "obscurity feature" to thwart attacks from lesser skilled attackers - since after all, the lesser skilled attackers are the real threat, right?).

Because, after all, locking the door and taking the keys with you only stops the lesser skilled attackers. -- Shawn McMahon | Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, EIV Consulting | that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any UNIX and Linux | hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure http://www.eiv.com| the survival and the success of liberty. - JFK
