There used to be a function in the shutdown utility called die_you_gravy_sucking_pig_dog() which was actually the very last function call made by shutdown(8) on a normal system shutdown. I believe humourless corporate types were instrumental in having that function renamed to something bland a few years back. However, now it's back, as of r238968: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sbin/shutdown/shutdown.c?r1=3D235855&= r2=3D238968 This stuff comes and goes. Personally, I think the developers exhibiting a sense of humour and a spark of personality is the sort of thing that leads me to trust a lot more in a code base than their appearing as a horde of bland corporate drones.
