Subject:[courier-users] Buffer Overflow in authmksock on x86_64Actions...

I'm not sure who to direct this at (and I didn't see anywhere to submit bugs, if there is, please point me in the right direction.)

When compiling courier-authlib on CentOS5 (after installing the redhat-rpm-config package.) I recieved a Buffer overflow in authmksock.

The overflow occurs when the path to sock is sufficiently long. (My build directory is rather deeply nested.)

The workaround was to make sure the path it was to use when compiling was shorter. (by moving my build directory.)

I thought someone should know.
