	Downloads from October 30 have been confirmed good.  Downloads
after November 12 confirmed bad.  Anything in-between is anyone's guess.
If anyone downloaded those sources between those two dates, please contact
me with the package md5sums.  I want to narrow down the time frame.
CVS repository does NOT appear to have been compromised.

	Good:

03e5eac68c65b7e6ce8da03b0b0b225e  tcpdump-3.7.1.tar.gz
0597c23e3496a5c108097b2a0f1bd0c7  libpcap-0.7.1.tar.gz

	Bad:

3c410d8434e63fb3931fe77328e4dd88  tcpdump-3.7.1.bad.tar.gz
73ba7af963aff7c9e23fa1308a793dca  libpcap-0.7.1.bad.tar.gz
