  I see your point of view, but being Apache and OpenSSH third-party
applications and being the libc bug at least common to NetBSD and OpenBSD,
maybe rolling out 4.6.1 wouldn't be appropriate. Probably a 4.6.1 release
would become easy food for trolls, also because many people remember the
overall quality of 4.1.1.
