This is still in -proposed? I think it's pretty clear what this bug is and that it's fixed by the update; we've had a number of people testing it and reporting success already. Plus, if you look at the actual patch, it's pretty clear that it fixes the problem.

IMHO this should get promoted out of -proposed and into the standard repo quickly. This is a crasher that impacts a wide range of software. What exactly is the criteria needed to approve the the promote? Maybe we need to figure out a way that this bug is really a security issue :-).

Thanks!
