What's the status? Shall we push the fix in the upcoming r4 release?
The status: The patch did not do its job, instead it did open up for a rather
huge set of instability problems in addition to the original problem. I have
really been unsure about where to repost these problems, so my report did
only focus on the original problem.
It's became apparent that this would need a *lot* of build/test cycles
and _proper_ testing before we even consider pushing it to either r4 or
security-master.
I must say that having such both a performance regression _and_ a
vulnerability in stable doesn't make me very happy; unfortunately, there
isn't much I can do at this point; I'm severely lacking free time at
this point of the year (semester exam period) and noone else from the
team seems interested to push this forward.
I expect to gradually resume my Debian activities starting from 8/7.
I'll attempt to properly fix this unless someone else steps up until then.
Thanks and sorry,
Faidon
