Perfectly fine, if that is the definition of "modified host". I'd
ask, show me a reference implementation of a host, which tells
me what is the basic software that is standard and beyond which
is considered a modified host. Where is that sacred host stack
definition.

When I install a OS on my PC, I will install 20 other applications and
this action is not resulting in my host not inter-operating with any
other host. That should be our interest and not on what applications I
install.

Also, if this is indeed the definition, 5213 already requires this change
on the host and we have to live with it.

Regards
Sri
