:Anyone have any comments on this?
Only cron is maintained here. All the other programs are maintained
by their authors or groups elsewhere. There isn't much we can do about
them.
Also, most of these are IRC tools. IRC tools are notoriously badly
written. To give you an example, there was an eggdrop floating around
for months about a year ago which had hacked in signal(SIGSEGV, handler)
to make the program ignore segv violations because the programmer who
made the mod was too clueless to understand what sigsegv actually meant.
