the fix to disable builtins for pfksh is only a few lines
dgk and I are checking out the code now
there is another alternative if we can pfexec bracket sections of code inline
I beleieve a message yesterday, about 1000 posts ago:) mentioned this is
possible
e.g., for the builtin b_mkdir() (with made-up function names)
pfexec_pretend("mkdir")
b_mkdir()
pfexec_stop_pretending()
if this is possible I would like to see example code
