yes, but the bug might not be in libsafe, though it might be as well.  I
never said Debian should make it a default install, but that it should
be at least documented somewhere.

There are multiple "easy" things for debian users to do that can give
them more security.  libsafe, the harden-* packages, one can go on and
on.  Each has their own pros and cons.  We should document this
somewhere.
