Proftpd has a bug in the udelay module causing a 32bit overflow
sometimes, meaning it adds a delay of 4 billion us on your login.
Mysql needs the updated libc6 from stinkypete or sarge R2 or it
deadlocks in the threading code sometimes. There have also been
reports of it eating memory untill it dies and restarts.
