The bugs mentioned in this report do not affect everybody. 505 fixed a
few bugs sure, but it created a new one which WOULD affect everybody. 506
fixed that, but had a problem with glibc builds which could not be fixed
this weekend.
hop said he'd fix it today. Provided that it doesn't break anything else
(it shouldn't, this it is a short/simple patch I'm told) I'll upload it
tonight. Need to be sure it works first.
I've downgraded the bug's priority a notch. It probably shouldn't be RC
anyway. (there's a potential DoS condition that is fixed in 505 that
nobody has come up with an exploit for yet which needs to be fixed in
potato in case someone can..)
