It's reasonable for a script to do 'eval "`dircolors`"', and this is
in the manual. Scripts might be run in any directory, including /tmp,
so it's reasonable to recommend a safe way to invoke dircolors.
On the other hand, scripts normally don't (and shouldn't) do 'rm *' in
random directories, and we don't recommend that.
