Note: "immaculate conception" may not mean what you think it means. It doesn't mean "without outside interference" (aka "virgin birth") like most people believe it does. It means "conceived without sin" (as in, not affected by man's "original sin").

Thus, an "immaculately conceived" file in OpenBSD would simply be one create "without sin". Or, in lay men's terms, perhaps one created "without bugs".


PS: For the curious, I am not Catholic, nor Christian, nor even really religious in any way. But it just irks me when people get "immaculate conception" and "virgin birth" mixed up. It's right up there with getting "demon/devil" and "daemon" mixed up.
