Can anyone with experience in the matter comment on whether rc
would behave well if the setuid bit is turned on? i.e., are there
holes in rc that need to be fixed? The only sh holes I know about
are the famous ones. The $ifs hole does not really apply, and the
option hole can be repaired with

	#!/bin/rc --

at the start of the script.

Note that I am not advocating running rc with the setuid bit turned
on, I was just wondering about it this morning.
