We have a bunch of local hacks we're making to 2.1-STABLE, involving
rdist, ssh and so on.  In the process of installing new binaries, I've
found that various programs, both in the root partition and in /usr,
are bizarrely difficult to remove.  I've tried removing them as root,
root in single-user mode, root from the console, and finally I've had
to use clri and then fsck.  In every case, the error message I get is:

	gnat@elara (~) whoami
	root
	gnat@elara (~) rm /usr/bin/passwd
	override r-sr-xr-x  root/bin schg for /usr/bin/passwd? y
	rm: /usr/bin/passwd: Operation not permitted

Any suggestions?

Nat
