Dear Release Team,

Please would it possible to fix #694096 / CVE-2012-4576 via
stable-proposed-updates.  It affects the linux.ko kernel module which is
shipped but not normally loaded/used.  This was already fixed in testing
via sid, and without a DSA.

A debdiff is attached of the changes staged in the glibc-bsd packaging
SVN;  I would ask a DD on the team to upload this if approved.

Thank you.
