I guess for krogoth and jethro we have the choice of applying just this fix or 
the upgrade. Looking over the commits for 1.0.2i it does look like quite a lot 
more than the list of CVEs in the recent security advisory were fixed, and 
it's somewhat concerning that the 1.0.2i release went out with an apparently 
compile-breaking typo in it (subsequently fixed, patch applied in Patrick's 
upgrade).

Cheers,
Paul
