Insurance policies don't jump out and prevent you from walking near
construction sites on the grounds that someone might drop something from the
top of the building under construction and it might hit you.  SCO "UNIX" (or,
more precisely, SecureWare) does.  Why is this a problem?  What happens when I
*work* at the construction site?
