+ o Major bugfixes (security):
+ - Do not crash when comparing an address with port value 0 to an
+ address policy. This bug could have been used to cause a remote
+ assertion failure by or against directory authorities, or to
+ allow some applications to crash clients. Fixes bug 6690; bugfix
+ on 0.2.1.10-alpha.
