Yes, it's absolutely ``rediculous'' that someone else has specified the
location of /etc/resolv.conf!
I want to call it /etc/xyzzy. No, no, wait, I want /etc/xyzzy-999052035,
with the number increasing by 1 every second. That's my local policy!
Programs that look for /etc/resolv.conf have to be fixed.
