above the Summary heading) it looks like they did not want (or did not consider) to request a separate CVE for this. Please do coordinate 
with them if you decide to go ahead with this request. (I did notice, and can see value in, Will Dormann's suggestion in the other 
thread that it might make sense to have more fine-grained CVEs for this collection of problems.) -- Peter van Dijk peter () 7bits nl 
I'll follow up with them. Thanks! Larry
