Once again, I fail to see how it prevents a security hole.  It doesn't
solve anything really, for it to be even possible, one has to run the
command in a place where such a file-name exists and dircolors is
usually run from the home directory.  It is kinda like having someone
create a file called `-rf /some/ones/home' in a directory that is
world writable, and you execute `rm *' in that directory.
