Still no backport of the patch to the stable 1.3.0a release. It's pretty
annoying, since the patch against the latest RC doesn't apply cleanly because of
variable name changes. I tried to backport it, but the risk in _me_ doing so is
just too high.

I really don't understand how/why projects decide to not provide security
patches for what they consider to be the current stable release... I'm going to
push new proftpd packages anyway, to fix bug #244168 but not this bug,
unfortunately :-(
