very good example of how you actually do *not* do what you claim. find me
the word 'security' in your announcement. it's not there. amazing, isn't it.
despite what your fellow -stable maintainer claimed *he* would at least do
(and regularly tries to do so in fact). despite what you yourself did on
other occasions (remember 2.6.23.8?). what's wrong with you Greg? have you
not been told and proven to cover up security bugs enough times already?
