License problems prohibit resolving this security matters, unfortunately. It
doesn't look like upstream is going to release fixes (Debian may not
distribute fixes) or fix the license. 

At the moment, a fixed package is in potato, but as that isn't allowed
strictly spoken. I'll remove the fixes from the majordomo scripts, and
provide patches in /usr/share/majordomo. I think that's the only way to get
around with it. Otherwise I want majordomo removed from potato.
