*** 1404,1413 ****
Fix a file parsing overflow in kdb_util(8).
Niklas is taking a shot at making our cross compiler toolset sufficient
for a full cross compile of the vax port.
! 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 patch exists which solves the
problem.
Make size(1) work on files created via ld -Z.
