Hi all,

There's a potential root exploit in OpenSSL.  I've updated the devel
grimoire's version of the OpenSSL spell, and it should be available within
an hour or two of this post.

More information on the potential problem is available at OpenSSL's website
at http://www.openssl.org, or simply go to
http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20020730.txt

For those of you who'd like to not have to wait for the grimoire to update,
a simple version bump from 'd' to 'e' will suffice.

Please Note: Aside from openssh, which will automatically recompile after
openssl is installed, you should recompile any other software on your
systems that uses openssl.
