Please consider including the fix of this bug into the security update. I think that this bug can be quite dangerous. The point is that many workstations may be running without firewalls because of the bug. To make my point clear, let me give you my own story.
I installed sarge to a few workstations a few days ago. It seemed that everything went very smoothly. In setting up the workstations, I edited /etc/mason.baserules to my satisfaction, started mason using /etc/init.d/mason, and verified that the firewall is up. In a few hours, however, I needed to shutdown and reboot the workstations to connect them to a UPS that had just arrived. Now, the workstations' firewalls were all down, though I was not aware. One day later, the system log is filled with a whole bunch of "illegal access" warnings, which I had never seen before. I hope that the fix of this bug will be included in the security update.
