Arch teams,

xscreensaver-5.02 went stable quickly because of dangling security bug in previous versions. However, now that it's been on tree for some time it turns out to have some serious issues:

- Segmentation Fault, allways, with non-interactive PAM.
- Applies several invalid patches, consulted upstream about them.

So, here I am requesting 5.02-r2 stable instead. It's not been 30 days but these issues are grave enough IMO. Leaving it under your consideration.

Thanks, Samuli
