Priv seperation (the new feature in OpenSSH we're talking about)
was intoduced in OpenSSH 3.3, released 3 days ago.
- It has not been tested by Red Hat's QA team.
- It has a good chance of breaking PAM.
- It might not do compression.
- This release doesn't fix the bug, just reduce its risk.
- We're still going to have to upgrade after this release.
- We only have Theo's word that there is a bug to fix.

Taking into account that nobody is going to hesitate one second
to whine to Red Hat a) about the number of updates to do and
b) the fact that this might break features, I would fully understand
if they decided to wait until the patch that fixes the bug and
backport the patch to the currently used version of OpenSSH.
