+0.3.3  Sat, 27 Aug 2011 18:35:34 +0200
+	* Fixed a possible security problem, reported by John Lightsey. See
+	  Debian bug #638002. The return value of seteuid() calls was handled
+	  wrong or not at all. Now, the (already available) set_euidgid()
+	  function is used when possible. Additionally, removed the unnecessary
+	  identity change when writing into an already open file descriptor.
+	* Added debug level 9 for msgs to stderr during reading config.

 	* Fixed an important bug with folded headers! The folded lines
 	  of a long header would be ignored in unpredictable cases.
