According to Wojciech Kocjan  <wojciech at n0spam-kocjan.org>:
:But not quite more secure. Imagine userX running a script that does 
:something nasty - like replace some command and then wait for root to 
:call it. This was a very simple example, since probably parrot would 
:recreate interpreters per script, but I guess it still could be possible 
:since it would be the same process...

Each script would need to be done in a seperate safe interpreter which
goes away at the end of the script, so there was no cross process
pollination.
