This is definitely disconcerting, to say the least. I criticized Apple
the other day for taking *three* weeks to package a security update.

IIRC, it seemed like KDE use to be faster on security fixes (not to
mention releases in general, considering KDE 3.1 came out ~ 1 year ago
and KDE 3.0 ~ 10 months prior to that).
