Yes, they are the most common utils in the Unix world. Which is EXACTLY
why you don't want them on a server. If a cracker were to gain access,
would you want the cracker to be able to compile for your computer?
For proper security, do your own compiling on some other computer and copy
the executables over. If you must compile on your server, install the
compiler as needed and remove it when you are done.
