Why not? If a user is still invoking the packed executable once in a while,
the
canary avoids the situation that he has an incomplete cache area.
If they don't invoke the packed executable anymore, the cache area will be
cleaned up eventually by tmpwatch or whatever, no harm done.

Sorry to pick on this: pp has too many options already.
