I hope that's information will be useful for making new patch for
XFree86.

I found bug in xfs


This is caused by the same bug in xc/lib/xtrans that "in.telnetd"
<telnetd () DOEMILL SHOCKING COM> reported under the subject "X11R6 NetBSD
Security Problem" last week.

The patch I submitted (with stat() replaced by lstat(), as noted by
Kevin Vajk and other) also fixes that.
