   make the home directory for all uucp logins /usr/lib/uucp,
   not /usr/spool/uucppublic.

Couldn't a UUCP neighbor grab stuff in /usr/lib/uucp, or scribble over
any existing files (like L.sys)?  I'm assuming uucp owns /usr/lib/uucp.
Am I missing something?

   In general, any directory that is world writable should never be a home
   directory for any login.

Agreed.
