This package has some pretty dodgy temp-file creation routines.
Some of them have been patched away by wrapping them around mktemp(1)
calls, but some remain.  Set the TMPDIR environment variable to a
unique directory to avoid this problem.

The maintainer says that they are rewriting this package completely to
avoid these problems in the future.
initial import of wv-0.6.5 -- wv is a library which allows access to Microsoft Word files. It can load and parse the word 2000, 97, 95 and 6 file formats. These are the file formats known internally as Word 9, 8, 7 and 6. Work is underway to support reading earlier formats as well: Word 2 docs are converted to plaintext. 2001-08-10 20:51:31 -04:00			$OpenBSD: SECURITY,v 1.1.1.1 2001/08/11 00:51:31 avsm Exp $
