Sorry to all- I should have said "example" code, not "exploit" code... Big
difference there, and I am glad you corrected that. My main point was the
inclusion of a road map that lead to the ida extension, in response to like
references being considered irresponsible. But, Marc has since pulled back,
so not much point in my belaboring it. Similar example code has been
released with most (if not all) of the other advisories.
