Dunno of one. Code's getting too complex (i.e.: relying on too
many underlying layers that can't be trusted) for code reviews
to make much difference. The question is -- is there any way to
run it under isolation on your system? Haven't played with it
enough lately -- but I don't think fwtk's http-gw is free of
buffer overruns, either. :(
