* SECURITY [CVE-2007-5116] (closes: #450456): Apply patch from
  Will Drewry and Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team to fix a
  UTF-8 related heap overflow in Perl's regular expression compiler,
  probably allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code by compiling
  specially crafted regular expressions.

* Support "nocheck" option in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS (closes: #449549).
* Suppress Configure test for ualarm() so that setitimer() emulation
  is used (closes: #448965).

* Apply optimisation for File::Spec->abs2rel suggested by joeyh
  (closes: #376658).

  multiple calls to recv (fixes a problem reported by EPIC folks).

* Merge NMU.

[Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt] (closes: #398331)
* Completly replace libnet-perl:
 + Integrate some patches for the Net:: modules
 + debian/control: Update to replace the last libnet-perl version.
 + Update configuration mechanism so that /etc/perl/Net/libnet.cfg
   sources in /etc/libnet.cfg if it exists, otherwise the
   configuration is stored there. This saves us trouble from
   converting debconf-managed /etc/libnet.cfg to a dpkg conffile

7. By Margarita Manterola on 2006-08-06

* Non-maintainer upload to fix Failure To Build From Source in hppa, mips
  and mipsel architectures.
* Added debian/patches/74_debian_hppa_mips_optim, that forces pp_pack.c to
  be compiled without the delayed-branch optimization option.
