It is rather rare to see security advisory which bumps only patch level and something that doesn't require recompilation (eg. a shell script). Current behaviour would make people think they are running latest patch level because freebsd-version says so, eventhough they only did 'make installworld' without rebuilding affected binaries. --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheelsystems.com FreeBSD committer http://www.FreeBSD.org Am I Evil?
