The documentation for these two modules says that they were disabled in
Python 2.3 due to security holes not easily fixable.  I have not worked with
them, but I can still import them under Python 2.4, so I'm not clear on
whether the security problems were fixed in Python itself, or whether the
modules remain deprecated (disabled?)?  How are/were they actually disabled?
Any place that documents what the problems are? Any alternatives?

Thanks,
