In a previous life, I implemented a version of the
VMS-like versioned files by changing open on a non-u
system. Users could then clean up by using the equivalent
of find -name '*;1' -exec rm {] \;
I like changing unlink better, so that one could
subsequently say 'rm foo;1' and have it really disappear.
