Great example.

Consider that we have /usr/ucb/ls.

This is only an issue for alternate implementation of well known UNIX 
utilities.  Since Linux wants to
dump everything in /usr/bin (over 4000 entries on RH4, last time I 
looked), this isn't an issue for j-random
software.  The FOSS developers know better.
