Bugzilla Bug 189786

as per bug #185442 lighttpd<1.4.16 has open security problems.

this is a heads up to ask the affected archs to 
please mark 1.4.16 stable, so that old versions can be removed.

stabilization should be most likely done with 1.4.18 instead as explained in
bug #191912

first round of removals done.
arm, sh and mips: please mark lighttpd-1.4.18 stable - security see bug #191912

sorry for the spam.... me fighting the arch box

lighttpd-1.4.18 compiles and runs fine on my Silicon Graphics O2 mips box.

System uname: 2.6.19-rc5-o2 mips64 R5000 V2.1  FPU V1.0
CFLAGS="-march=r5000 -O2 -pipe -mabi=32"
CHOST="mips-unknown-linux-gnu"

The older 1.3 version didn't compile at all at first, because it required
automake-1.7, which it of course didn't depend on. In my opinion the old 1.3
series should be dropped and the 1.4.18 be marked stable for mips.

Antti Järvinen: perhaps you want to become an arch tester for the mips arch?!
the mips team, it appears, is in need for people with access to the right
hardware.

thanks
Thilo

MIPS please.
