[CH] Olive Oil & Peppers: Botulism issue

I know this has probably hit the group before, but being relatively new to
the list, I hope someone will help me out.

I've heard about putting peppers in oil will create botulism - and I
understand that, but even the rec.arts.food.preserving FAQ is vague on what
can be done to avoid this.  I'd like to mix/store some herbs and other
foods with olive oil - does anyone know how commercial packers get away
with it?
