It's not an isolated incident either. Look at:

That one actually has binaries though, wonder what platform :). My guess would be linux or solaris, although I guess in theory it could be some win32 binaries, via cygwin. There's a few other examples in this category there as well, funny stuff.

Guess that's one way to get detection counts up.
