That may have been true very early on,
but it's definitely not true now (I'm not sure
it ever was).  I run new factotums all the
time.  The default is not to post.  The system
factotum is run by /boot/boot as

	factotum -S -sfactotum

I start new factotums all the time.  It doesn't
break anything on my systems.
