  <li>Fix short read() and write() operation in the RFC1413 handling code in
          httpd(1).
  <li>Fix 'z' command in mail(1).
+ <li><strong>const</strong> the parameters to a few more system calls.
+ <li>Make config(8) store the first free unit number in its tables so that
+         pcmcia device re-insertion can come back to the same unit number.
+ <li>Fix a file parsing overflow in kdb_util(8).
+ <li>Niklas is taking a shot at making our cross compiler toolset sufficient
+         for a full cross compile of the vax port.
+ <li><font color=#e00000><strong>A new security problem exists if you rely on
+         securelevels and immutable or append-only files.  The fix does not
+         permit mmap'ing of immutable or append-only files which are writeable,
+         as the VM system will bypass the meaning of the file flags.
+         <a href=errata.html#immutable>A patch exists which solves the
+         problem</a></strong></font>.
+ <li>Make size(1) work on files created via <strong>ld -Z</strong>.
+ <li>Disable dynamic loading in the mips version of perl(1).
+ <li>Make perl(1) support calls to lockf(3) now that we have it.
  </ul>
