During compiling on FreeBSD 4, I found some security relevant problems
in 2.0b5-ma1 that are also present in 2.0b3-jd1-ma1, 2.0b4 and
2.0b5. These are a possible unsecure use of tmpnam in rnews.c that I'm
auditing and format string vulnerabilities in syslog that FreeBSD's
header files caught. I LOVE proper header files.

I'm currently examining leafnode 2.0b5-ma1 for further vulnerabilities
and portability problems and bugfixing, I'll release 2.0b5-ma2 pretty
soon.
