Package: php5
Version: 5.2.0-8+etch13
Severity: normal / exempt
Justification: no longer builds from source (in some cases)

The "CVE-2008-3658: Buffer overflow in the imageloadfont function." patch makes 
a call to the overflow2() function which is an undefined reference.
That particular function is defined in gd_security.c which is part of the php5 
source tree but is not included in this Debian source package.

As a result the package will fail to build when it is configured to include the 
bundled GD library which comes with php5 rather than linking to
the shared version which it defaults to.

As it is Debian policy to build this package against the shared GD library that 
comes with the distribution, this report will never be an issue.

For the record and completeness I thought it would be best to make mention of 
it anyway.
