I'll change that, and replace "script" by "utility".

I understand -- I'll squash the "rewrite" and "use internal APIs" patches 
together as a last step for the v2, so I'd be able to get them back with 
all the changes made in the v2 if needed.

Good catch.

Yeah, I think I will replace them with two calls to `error()'.

Checking that `orig_mode' and friends are lower than 0800, and that 
`*argv[1]' is not equal to '\0' should be enough, right?
