Sometimes you have to clean up your room and tidy up the mess, which 
piled up over time. This cleanup can be done on one day and checked in 
by one person. It's not rocket science! It does not break anything, 
because the compat symlinks will _not_ go away.

About "sbin": How exactly does "hiding" stuff prevent users, who open a 
_shell_, to use those tools? They cannot do any bad stuff with it anyway.

With the compat symlinks, you even have no path problems anymore with 
any alien scripts you run. All tools are reachable through any standard 
path.
