+       The ``possible attack'' message would be logged more often
+               than necessary if you are using Pine as a user agent.
+       The wrong host would be reported in the ``possible attack''
+               message when attempted from IDENT.
+       In some cases the syslog buffer could be overflowed when
+               reporting the ``possible attack'' message.  This can
+               cause denial of service attacks.  Truncate the message
+               to 80 characters to prevent this problem.
+       When reading the IDENT response a loop is needed around the
+               read from the network to ensure that you don't get
+               partial lines.
+       Password entries without any shell listed (that is, a null
+               shell) wouldn't match as "ok".  Problem noted by
+               Rob McMahon.
+       When running BIND 4.9.x a problem could occur because the
+               _res.options field is initialized differently than it
+               was historically -- this requires that sendmail call
+               res_init before it tweaks any bits.
+       Fix an incompatibility in openxscript() between the file open mode
+               and the stdio mode passed to fdopen.  This caused UnixWare
+               2.0 to have conniptions.  Fix from Martin Sohnius of
+               Novell Labs Europe.
+       Fix problem with static linking of local getopt routine when
+               using GNU's ld command.  Fix from John Kennedy of
+               Cal State Chico.
+       It was possible to turn off privacy flags.  Problem noted by
+               *Hobbit*.
+       Be more paranoid about writing files.  Suggestions by *Hobbit*
+               and Liudvikas Bukys.
+       MAKEMAP: fixes for 64 bit machines (DEC Alphas in particular)
+               from Spider Boardman.
+       CONFIG: No changes (version number only, to keep it in sync
+               with the binaries).
