I thought I'd write a NEWS.Debian entry about disabling RSH, but then I 
realised it wouldn't be disabled completely, only by default; code using the 
library can still set rshpath by calling tcp_parameters(SET_RSHPATH, path). 
But maybe that's just fine. I also haven't got around to actually verifying 
that the patch works as intended.

Perhaps wanting to run imapd via remote shell is so rare that there's no need 
to write a NEWS.Debian entry?
