Our version does have the vulerability, however the nature of the 
vulnerability is such that it's incredibly unlikely that our users would 
be affected. That said, I am currently working with the 9.3.1 beta 
sources to be ready to upgrade promptly, and if 9.3.1-REL doesn't come 
out "soon," I'll import the patch.

What I can do today is patch the port, stay tuned for that.

Doug
