    Why wasn't it enough of a problem to bring up until we went to a dynamic
    /? Not having a usable FTP client if your libs are FUBAR'ed isn't new
    with dynamic.

    Now that it is brought up, where does it end what goes into /rescue?
    Having what goes into /rescue bounded only by what is in /[s]bin,
    /usr/[s]bin is what worries some of us.
