It only appears bug-free, because nobody has the time, energy, and patience to read djb's awful code. He's much better cryptographer than programmer, and he should stick with that.

  because nobody has the time, energy, and patience to read djb's awful code. Why do you think it is awful? The parts of his code that I've looked at (admittedly mainly qmail) have been great.

    As I remember, it was the opposite with Qmail, it was awful. And surely it was so for daemontools.

      As I remember, it was the opposite with Qmail, it was awful. You remember wrong, I had no trouble understanding qmail, neither the structure nor the code itself.
