a/glibc-solibs-2.12.1-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt. Patched "The GNU C library dynamic linker will dlopen arbitrary DSOs during setuid loads." This security issue allows a local attacker to gain root by specifying an unsafe DSO in the library search path to be used with a setuid binary in LD_AUDIT mode. Bug found by Tavis Ormandy (with thanks to Ben Hawkes and Julien Tinnes).
