I committed a change sys/conf/kmod.mk such that modules are now installed
with flags "schg" as the kernel has been forever.

    It was asked of me if the "schg" flags do much more than get in the
    way now?  Some feel we're really using "schg" mainly to inhibit foot
    shooting.  It doesn't really help security or we would set it on more
    libraries than libc.so.* and a couple of crypto shared libraries.

So the question is do we want to keep my change?  If so, shouldn't we use
"schg" in a *lot* more places?  Otherwise it's use is nebulous
