There are probably some security fixes that haven't
been made in MkLinux pre-R1 that should be. I'm
not sure what, though. Someone needs to go
through CERT, securityfocus.com, versiontracker,
and redhat's security page and verify that all the
packages that we include are up-to-date.

Note that it is unlikely that very many (if any) of the
security exploits will impact MkLinux, both due to
the architecture's relative security and the way it
builds its stack. However, we should bring
sources up-to-date for source compliance
reasons, as well as to ensure compatibility with
configuration files, modules, etc. from other
distributions that end-users might want to use.
