This problem is very picky about the machines it crops up on. Some people
claim that linux has this problem, while both of my linux systems do not
have the patch and have never had an issue.
The LWQ mail page goes into detail with a description of the problem, and
really, the only advice is to check your log files often and if you see
the problem, then patch. If it aint broke, dont fix it. Also (i havent
verified this) but i have heard that AOL recently is under the byte limit,
so this may no longer be a problem (but there might be others not under
the limit, who knows)
