Before you ask questions on a public list it's generally considered
polite to do a little checking yourself, especially in an open source
project. As Mike pointed out, the secteam had already addressed this
issue on -security, and I had already followed up in detail regarding
the upgrade plans.

In addition, at the time you posted the updates had all been done in
the ports, HEAD (-current), and RELENG_[56] (5 and 6-stable).

In any case, it's good that you're on top of your security
announcements, and I'm glad to say that this time anyway we're one
step ahead. :)

Doug
