In case anybody is not paying attention to -announce, there is a 
security fix that has just gone into HEAD, 5.3 and 5.4.

If you have public or untrusted users or code on your machines, you want 
to get this patched ASAP...

Note that the upcoming 5.4-RC1 *is* vulnerable and will need to be 
patched.

As an aside, the patch also should fix double faults.  I'd botched the 
layout of the tss structure definition too.
