Obviously not very, but Installer as of Mac OS X 10.3 has a 
requirements scheme that allows you to read keys from Info.plist 
bundles, so it might come in handy to keep this file synchronized with 
what it actually should be.  It would also be an easy way to detect 
whether or not it has been patched.
