There's a revision of the security update on its way that fixes another
vulnerability that I discovered when preparing the DSA text for
2.2sarge1.  Technical issues within the buildd network (an overloaded
arm build machine and a failed MIPSel build machine) have delayed this.
I hope to release -2.2sarge2 within the next 24 hours, along with a DSA.
