Matt,
Just to make sure we're talking about the same security issue I included
links below.

From what I was able to glean from the security analysis; this problem
was introduced in v4.2.0, corrected in v4.2.2, and doesn't affect
earlier versions.

What is the minimum memory_limit requirement for RC4? I'm aware that
you're trying to get it under 8MB for the final release.
