For the stable production release promotion, should we enforce this in a
postinstall script, e.g /bin/rm /bin/zless if /bin/less is not
installed, or leave it installed as the "platform" does not lack less,
and it could be installed later, possibly requiring a permanent
postinstall script to un-/re-install zless or link to it from somewhere
like /usr/libexec/?
