gnats.wookimus.net is up. Browse at your convenience. I still have
some tweaking to do with respect to spam filtering for email, but at
least the DB is up and running (Debian Sarge, 4.1.0-0).
I took a closer look at gen-index.c today and agree with PR#501 [1]_
that there can be some enhancements done to the fopen() calls to
prevent race conditions. The Gary McGraw and John Viega book[2]_,
"Building Secure Software: Race Conditions" illustrates how we can
tighten things up a bit.
