[SunHELP] [off topic]Freebsd intel

[Michael S. Schiller]

Yes, toor is a common entry in BSD. I actually add a similar entry to my
Solaris machines as well. I don't remember the logic behind BSD's use of
it, but I use it so that I have an entry for root that uses a different
shell than the normal root shell (which shouldn't be changed, but that's
a whole other discussion). So basically it's nothing to worry about.
