I don't believe this.  1.2 uses the R5 Intrinsics, and while HP is a
consortium member and the contractor doing the 1.2 work I can't believe
that any of that stuff is stable enough to use.  It's not even in beta
yet from OSF.  If they are releasing it then it's sure to change before
the official release.  (And we won't even talk about bugs.)

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
