I'm using the read-eval-print-loop to test my sandbox and found out that,
whenever I type something undefined, my security guard gets called with
(current-directory #f (exists)). What might this be? What functionality in the
REPL is doing this?

Another sandboxing consideration is the custodian-limit-memory. Does anybody
distribute or plan to distribute PLT with the memory accounting compiled
in? I'd rather not distribute such myself but my users are probably going to
need it to run the sandbox.
