I don't think there is any point in doing anything even resembling an
official 1.5.2 release including this fix unless we are going to
include backported fixes for all other vulnerabilities since 1.5.1 was
released (which I expect we are not going to attempt). If we do
include just this fix, it's only going to confuse people.
