*snip patches*
Applied (patch didn't like them and rather than fight with it I just
did it by hand), posted as version 5.
I don't like the language you added re: single user systems in the
/tmp bulletin. I think it's better to say that the attacker needs
to have access to an account on the machine in question; we don't
want lazy Linux or NetBSD administrators reading this and thinking
they're safe if they run multi-user systems. I posted a version 6
with that minor change, as well as an additional word in bulletin
2 to clarify what branches are.
