+ o Major bugfixes (security, correctness):
+ - Fix a programming error that could cause us to read 4 bytes before
+ the beginning of an openssl string. This could be used to provoke
+ a crash on systems with an unusual malloc implementation, or
+ systems with unsual hardening installed. Fixes bug 17404; bugfix
+ on 0.2.3.6-alpha.
