   Log Message:
   Update sendmail to address the current security issue
   Bump to nb2
   This will change the internal version of sendmail to 8.13.5.20060308
   > 	SECURITY: Replace unsafe use of setjmp(3)/longjmp(3) in the server
   > 		and client side of sendmail with timeouts in the libsm I/O
   > 		layer and fix problems in that code.  Also fix handling of
   > 		a buffer in sm_syslog() which could have been used as an
   > 		attack vector to exploit the unsafe handling of
   > 		setjmp(3)/longjmp(3) in combination with signals.
   > 		Problem detected by Mark Dowd of ISS X-Force.
   > 	Handle theoretical integer overflows that could triggered if
   > 		the server accepted headers larger than the maximum
   > 		(signed) integer value.  This is prevented in the default
   > 		configuration by restricting the size of a header, and on
   > 		most machines memory allocations would fail before reaching
   > 		those values.  Problems found by Phil Brass of ISS.
