I've always deleted toor and switched root to /bin/sh since I started
using NetBSD in late 1994 or early 1995, and have yet to see any problem
with it.
However, it's not that big a deal for me, since it really only affects
console work, where I often "exec /bin/ksh" anyway. When I su, I use the
-m option, so I can keep my shell (ksh), all my aliases, etc.
