I suppose it is too late for this...

Has anyone notice the discussion in athena-ws of the `run' shell script?
At this point, all of the features/bugs seem to be hashed out, and it is
in the consult locker as well as my homedir.

It'd be really neat if this could exist in a release, and /srvd/patch is
the only way to really do that, it seems...

Note that the usefulness of this program is greatly enhanced if the user
doesn't need to be told how to find it; given the number of packages that
have been pulled out of the release to put into lockers, it is a reasonable
thing to have. (noone has argued against it, at all...) This is why I suggest
/srvd/patch.

Then again, /bin might be good too. But if it could appear somewhere in the
generic path, I think the world (or at least athena) would be a better place
for it.
