Hi:
        Up till now there has been no policy on whether one should use
#!/bin/sh -e or do set -e in a script.  I think we should gradually deprecate
the latter in favour of #!/bin/sh -e because with it one can override the -e
option by doing something like "/bin/sh script".  This would help in debugging
faulty scripts or forcing a script to ignore errors in weird circumstances.
Would anyone object to this if this were done say for slink?
