proftpd: the final issue



TJ aka castaglia, finally fixed the bug in 

http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2622
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=308313

Currently (1.2.10-13) the only workaround for that is disabling 
the mod_delay module. This of course potentially impacts prevention of
the timing attack that module solves.

I'm inclined to consider
that bug a RC (security) one, so if you RMs would allow the incoming 
fixed -14 release entering sarge before release, that would be 
great and allow me (poor maintainer) to sleep as a child in the 
next years...
