Actually, there may not be any need to remove "/etc/motd".  Vanilla System
III's "login" doesn't print "/etc/motd" nor check for mail; it leaves that
up to "/etc/profile", so you could have it check for the file and only
"cat" "/etc/motd" if it's absent.  Vanilla C shells don't source "/etc/cshrc";
you'd have to modify it if it hasn't been modified already - you should
modify it anyway, because if you don't, C shell users would have to hack
their own ".login" files to get the message of the day.
