I then do something to cause an OOM, but not kill any of mine, but cause
some other process to try to allocate memory, and I can kill it.
We don't want any way to kill syslogd, inetd, update, or numerous
other tasks, by the average user.
Is the solution simply to ignore this one, and say "quotas", to weight
processes with bound reserved ports, and ones by root higher, or a
list of names never to kill, unless they are seriously out of control.
Probably been thought of already by the clever people doing this :)
If so, sorry.
