 In addition to releasing RT versions 3.8.12 and 4.0.6 which address
 these issues, we have also collected patches for all releases of 3.8 and 4.0

It has been brought to our attention that the patchset requires version
0.68 or higher of FCGI.pm if you are running a FastCGI deployment.  A
too-low version of this module will manifest as outgoing mail failing to
be sent, and errors in the logs resembling:

  Could not send mail with command `[...]`:
 Can't locate object method FILENO via package FCGI::Stream

RT 3.8.11 and 4.0.5 already require version 0.75 or higher, to ensure
that you are protected from CVE-2011-2766, which affects mod_fastcgi:

 Just to clarify: after applying the patch to 3.8.9, do I have 3.8.10?
 The page footer and system configuration page still say 3.8.9 and
 don't mention the patch.

No.  The security patchsets are a minimal set of security patches which
do not include the other bugfixes in 3.8.10.
