Perhaps some kind of interim hot patching that'd obviate the need to
develop a clean fix, rebuild the whole package, test it, distribute it,
install it, and restart affected services (if not the whole system) would
be a better way to address such 0day-in-the-wild-the-sky-is-falling-
patch-now-or-die situations... until a regular update is ready.
