Ok, never post before (a third) coffee; the release of 1.4.2_10 and the
announcement of this vulnerability are unrelated.  The vulnerability has
been fixed in 1.4.2_9, and 1.4.2_10 is just another update.  

tron@ has added the correct vulnerability IDs to pkg-vulnerabilities in the
meantime.  Thanks tron for waking me up. ;-)  And sorry for the noise.
