mailx (1:8.1.2-0.20010922cvs-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New version from OpenBSD cvs repository:
    + aux.c: In skin(), only add a space after a comma if there is actually a
      space in the input buffer. This prevents a rare buffer overflow on very 
      long header lines...  (closes: #108677). See #108677 for more info.
    + aux.c: In skin() don't die if realloc() fails since its only purpose is
