when's a security fix grave enought for slink



Hello

After the defacing of the apache web site using a spied mysql root password
and then mysql to create a /root/.tcsh I was asked by a user if I don't
like to backport the current mysql to slink as it is able to run
under a non-root UID. 

I think it is not grave enough, but what do you think?

bye,

 -christian-
