So what if Windows files end up on a Linux system? They aren't dangerous except when loaded on a Windows environment. To load a kernel module to scan everything is much like checking everything you bring home against airplane regulations; it's massive overkill, and causes aggrivation over things that just aren't dangerous.

Critical Linux security API is still a kludge (Inquirer) Posted Oct 23, 2006 15:39 UTC (Mon) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] i.e., the title of the Inquirer article is right. It *is* a kludge.
The content of the article is wrong, though: mainlining it wouldn't make it any *less* of a kludge: the very thing it's trying to do is fundamentally kludgy.
