FreeBSD 8 uses linux-f10 as its default linuxulator, and in that, pango
has been updated to 1.22.3, which doesn't seem to suffer from the same
vulnerabilities. Or at least, they haven't yet been exposed! ;-)

You may be able to use f10 on 7.2 - set compat.linux.osrelease=3D2.6.16 in
/etc/sysctl.conf, and=20

OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=3Df10
OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=3Df10

in /etc/make.conf, then reinstall all your linux stuff. I did this before
moving on to 8BETA1 and it worked OK. I think I ended up deleting all the
old stuff, before installing afresh. As all the packages are already=20
compiled, it shouldn't take long.
