The other alternative is to remove the -override and -setuid options
from the attach invocation located in activate. After all, it is
possible to specify in /etc/attach.conf that the system packs should be
mounted w/o nosuid, even if all other filesystems are mounted nosuid.
How could this be done in a way that wouldn't have to be changed from
release to release? The only ways I can think of would key off such
things as the mount point. Perhaps something using the mount point in
the hesiod information, ignoring one requested by the user? This
seems questionable to me....
