As I left things, there were two fairly powerful discouragements to
installing debathena-cluster on a non-cluster machine:
1. The install script didn't offer it as an option.
2. If you install it on a machine without a fairly specific LVM
configuration, you will find yourself unable to log in.
I don't think it's important to consider the security requirements of
misguided debathena-cluster installations.
