* Fix CERT-FI Case 829767 UPX command line tools segfaults.
Received by UPX Team on 2015-May-08; originally reported
by Codenomicon to NCSC-FI on 2015-01-08.
The vulnerabilities were discovered by Joonas Kuorilehto and
Antti Häyrynen from Codenomicon.

pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F
With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.
This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.
Problems found with existing distfile for eagle:
distfiles/bicom101.zip
distfiles/szip-2.1nb3/szip-2.1.tar.gz
distfiles/xmill-0.9.1.tar.gz
No changes made to these distinfo files.
Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
Use BUILD_DIRS and MAKE_ENV instead of writing do-install phase manually.
Add sparc{,64} support to package. Fixes build on OpenBSD/sparc64 at least.

b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
* Fix allocation in runtime stub for darwin.macho-entry (i386 and amd64).
* Compress shared library on ELF i386 only [ld.so threatens even this case].
* Attempt to suport ELF on QNX 6.3.0 for armel (experimental).

Changes include:
* INFO: http://upx.sourceforge.net is the permanent UPX home page
* watcom/le: don't crash on files without relocations
* win32/pe: stricter checks of some PE values
* source code: much improved portability using ACC, the
Automatic Compiler Configuration
* source code: compile fixes for strict ISO C++ compilers
* source code: compile fixes for Win64
fab@gnux.info in PR 23903. This is the "Ultimate Packer for eXecutables".
This will build and run on NetBSD, but it only operates on the binary
formats of other systems.
