Today some Japanese hax0r spammed a japanese UNIX help BBS
(http://cocoa.2ch.net/unix/index2.html) with a bunch of links
(annotated with things like "help is available at this link", and
others more overt: "Linux is better than FreeBSD, this link will dump
shit into their PR database") which caused a bogus PR to be submitted
via the website (which wrongly uses GET, not POST, to submit new PRs).
I chmod 0'd the dosendpr.cgi script on freefall until it can be fixed
-- someone needs to look at this ASAP.
