We haven't usually added NEWS items for bug fixes.

No, it won't.  You are missing the security issues I'm talking about.
(It's also completely wrong API layering.)  Sorry I gave you a false
impression of approval about this.  I was not thinking very clearly
at the Cauldron.  I object strenuously to making a release with this
code in it.  We can discuss the details when I'm back from vacation.


Thanks,
Roland
