Not really but it's also pretty naive to send something considered being
confidential in an unencrypted mail. This bug/problem (or whatever it is)
has been known for a long while and reported several times. Just use
Google groups and search for "confidential: yes" "netbsd" to find a whole
bunch of such PRs. There's an open PR for it. However, I think the
"Confidential" tag should simply be removed and replaced with a comment to
send such PRs encrypted to the security officer instead.
BTW, I don't think bugs concerning only -current should ever be considered
"confidential". Either you're prepared for the apocalypse or you use a
stable release - JMHO.
