I'm saying I agree with Garrett in that I don't see what checking for
valid shells buys us in the general case.  I'm saying that maybe we
might save some sloppy cgi/shell progarmmer from him/her self when the
script kidz attack that script.  But that's sucha  large stretch that
I don't see that as a win.  Eg, it doesn't buy us much in real
situations.
