Security concerns are mostly an artificial problem IMHO. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Maybe upstreaming some of the changes (or making them a compile-time option for giflib) should be considered? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
