With respect to the recent CERT advisory on metamail script
insecurity (CA-97.14.metamail), is BSDI (2.1) vulnerable and/or
planning to put out a patch? It's strange since BSDI is not listed in
Appendix A as usual, yet the CERT coordination center thanks BSDI (and
FreeBSD) for their input on the solution...
