I would like to echo the people who think this is a a bad idea,, but
for a slightly different reason.  I believe that there should be
consistent behavior from all platforms for the xscreensaver command.
I wouldn't have a problem so much if we built xss as xscreensaver for
all platforms (or at least non-Athena platforms) in the sipb locker
and did the rename.  However, since others have raised objections, I'm
not actually advocating this idea.
