The classification of this view might be irrelevant, though, for the
issue at hand. The original reporter of the bug was using a
LIDS-enhanced Linux kernel, which, in itself, might be a bit
extreme. In any case, this kernel produces diagnostics, and he wants
it to stop producing those diagnostics, by changing the software that
triggers them.

Sure. Many people don't have a problem with that. Some would go and
change sendmail so that it places its Berkeley DB files into /var.
