*Sigh* ... Yes, XFree86. Read the entire thread.

Can't we just murder this thread? This issue is very old, has been
discussed, many solutions found. Don't know what it's doing back on
-security right now. 

If you'd really like in-depth information on this, wouldn't it be nicer to
do a websearch, considering that this has been discussed so many times way
before? (No need to forward this to netbsd-security, either, but I guess
I'm too late) 

Just my thoughts...
