[Yes, replying to my own message, if not myself....  dhw]

I think I can top that:

g1-9(5.0-C)[2] file /tmp/install.*|* | grep data
COPYRIGHT: Command not found.


while from a different xterm on the same machine:

g1-9(5.0-C)[2] file /tmp/install.*|* | grep data
#SC.SAVE~: Command not found.


As before, this is running with /tmp mounted on a "md" device that is
swap-backed.

Clues?
