And that's pretty much what my point was in this thread. OpenBSD 
developers are also not infallible. Just because there has been an 
exploitable security issue found is no reason to have people jumping 
up & down to rip out their code. Especially when there's no 
reasonable guarantee that the replacement will be any more/less 
vulnerable to the same mistakes as the status quo (and given that the 
proposed replacement code hasn't been touched in forever...).

Just my thoughts,
Mike
