The question is: if it's included in the default installation, is it
not fair game to test one's knowledge of it? Are we certifying stricly
BSD specific knowledge, or the ability to provision, deploy,
administer, and monitor a BSD machine? Either way, if a tool included
in the base system has different flags accorss different BSD's (a
nitpick, but valid one nonetheless) then that's something a "BSD
Certified Administrator" should be aware of, I believe.
