  Modified files:
    lib/libc/locale      setlocale.c 
  Log:
  Disallow '/' characters in LC_* environment variables which might
  be used to point to a bad locale file. This is only believed to be a
  minor security risk - the only risk is if some program uses the result
  of a localized string as a format specifier in a vulnerable function
  like sprintf(). No such code is believed to exist in the FreeBSD base
  system, although it is possible that badly written third party code
  would do that.
