I tried to replace "/bin/sh" this way, and although everything seemed to
work great, eventually I found out that all my outbound news was being
rejected with a "inews: inbound news is garbled" on the remote machines.

Didn't have the time to track down the problem, so my system is insequre
again. Any suggestions?

#---------------- sh.c ----------------
main (argc, argv)
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
	putenv ("IFS=\" \t\n\"");
	execv ("/bin/SH", argv);
	return -1;
}
#---------------- ----------------
