Are you sure there are no security issues, and absolutely sure there are no
root security holes, lurking in there?

I am tempted to publicize the issue on the BugTraq and FullDisclosure
mailing lists. Maybe I am wrong, and will suffer the humiliation of being
laughed at; or maybe I am right ...

(I know Matt thinks bugs.debian is public already, but it is quite obscure;
so the general public, Debian users, and other Linux/UNIX maintainers may
still be in the dark.)
