Sometimes we wish to ensure that files or directories are not installed somewhere that may prove detrimental to the operation of the system. For example, this may be the case if files are placed in a directory that is utilised as a mount point at run time, thus making them inaccessible once when the mount point is being utilised.
Implement the prohibited paths QA test, which enables such locations to be specified in a "PROHIBITED_PATHS" variable. This implementation allows for a colon separated list of paths to be provided. Shell style wildcards can be used.
