More than that, no one should be using that init on any system running
any version of the System.  It has bugs that causes some crashes which
was a problem while we were testing System 7.  If you do have this init, you
should remove it and don't pass it around.  It does little if anything
for you, and the risk is too great.  It is NOT an Apple recommend fix for
any bugs.
