Headers munged somewhat to reflect true origin.  This should hopefully
answer, and help reduce the number of, the "What's the most recent ld.so
version, and where can I get it?" e-mails that I've been receiving.

------- Forwarded Message

A new ld.so package has been uploaded to ftp.debian.org and should be
available soon.

Changes in version 1.7.11:

	Changed ld.so and ld-linux.so to delete all variations
	of LD_PRELOAD and LD_LIBRARY_PATH for set[ug]id programs,
	This makes it harder for broken set[ug]id programs to be
	compromised.

	Fixed a problem in libdl.so where dlsym would not accept
	the handle returned from dlopen(0, *).

[Mod: There are now also copies in linux.nrao.edu:/pub/security/ld.so/debian.
The "basic" distribution, retrieved from ftp.ods.com:/pub/linux, is in
linux.nrao.edu:/pub/security/ld.so.  The ftp.ods.com tarfile includes
binaries, though I don't have an MD5 checksum for it on hand...  --Jeff]
