Well the libc5 build is being a bit of a pain, because of having to build it
on a `bo' box which does not understand pristine sources.  I've therefore
overridden the normal source upload to use the pristine source that was used 
for 1.2.22-2 (libc6), rather than the .orig drivel from the 1.2.22-1 (libc5) 
version.

I'd appreciate it if someone could grab a copy of the new & old source, and work our what's changed since 1.2.21, just to make sure some joker hasn't inserted any trapdoors --- I normally do that before releasing new versions, but have not got time today.

That's the plan :-)

BTW If anyone happens to be anywhere near Åre, Sweden, next week, and wants to 
get together for a PGP key signing, mail me your phone number (the first
120-ish characters of subject/message get forwarded to my phone via GSM-SMS)
and I'll give you a ring --- If I don't, it's probably because I'm having too
much fun to bother with checking phones (or UK->Sweden SMS doesn't work).

Cheers, Phil.
