I suspect ports folk will need to recipe/reconfigure their machines to
have wxallowed on /usr/pobj.

I hope you all have /usr/pobj as seperate partition already.

Now is the time to understand the value of seperate partitions.  And
change your systems.

Seperate filesystems means seperate politics.  There have always been
important isolative mount flags, now there is another...

The greatest risk comes from having world-writeable directories in
a wxneeded filesystem.  When you do that, a binary can be placed which
violates the restriction.  I am referring to people who run with their
entire system as one giant / filesystem.  Think it through.
