This totally disregards those that sat and coded it though. And, as
security audits show, clean, secure code is hard to comeby. And consider,
some sources have been audited a number of times over hte years with new
bugs popping up every now and then. If the source is insecure and
exploitable, no matter how good the implementor of the program copiled
from it, there will remain a gaping wound...
