Does TurboLinux have any proof for this claim or is it just a guess?
If the former: why has [EMAIL PROTECTED] not been contacted?
If the latter: why isn't this explicitly stated here?

BTW: Another advisory (TLSA2000013-1) from TurboLinux also made a
wrong claim about sendmail. It would be nice to be more careful.

PS: The segfault problem has been fixed in 8.11.2 as the RELEASES_NOTES
clearly say.
