 -----------------
+Version 5.003_97h
+-----------------
+
+This patch eliminates almost all possible sources of buffer overflow;
+in particular, there are no more sprintf() bugs.  (!!)  This patch
+also has a few other fixes.  With these changes in place, I can sleep
+at night.  (Because I've stopped hacking.  :-))
