>Description:

Update to thttpd 2.20b package.

From http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/:
New in version 2.20b: 

    Corrected version of Marcel Telka's ssi fix. My bad. 

New in version 2.20: 

    Performance improvements to the timer package via hashing, and
    double-linking / sorting the lists. Partially based on a suggestion by
    Michal Ostrowski. 
    Performance improvement to the mmap cache package, from Evan Jones. 
    Minor Linux fix for open files limit, from Jordan Ritter. 
    Fix for null ClientData, which picky compilers didn't like. 
    Unknown sockaddr type becomes a non-fatal error, preventing a DOS
    attack. 
    Close extraneous file descriptors on CGI calls - from Russell Dill. 
    Security fixes for the external ssi program, from ghandi@dopesquad.net
    and Wolfgang Rupprecht. 
    Fix to make the ssi program elide the HTML comment sequence, from
    Marcel Telka. 
    Red Hat packaging updates from Bennett Todd. 
    Throttling fix from Tom Pavel.
