Umm, it's listed as insecure in the every config file, so you're not
saying anything that wasn't already known.

However, it was required for some X applications to work correctly,
which is why it was still being used.

What is being done now to ensure those applications still work?  Did you
provide patches to the XFRee86 team for FreeBSD?
