Dunno, but *if* the actions to be forced need only occur on accounts with
the Bourne, C, or Korn shells as login shells, the Bourne and Korn
shells have supported "/etc/profile" since S5"R1" and the C shell in
S5R4 also supports an equivalent (I don't remember what its name is, and
I think they forgot to document it).  ("Bash" also supports
"/etc/profile".)
