Why? pointing out bugs is a good thing. If you dont know about them (or know
that they affect people) you cannot/wont fix them.

I agree that for STiNG it isn't worth fixing, but ignoring all previous
vectors presumably affects more than just sting. I guess this is why
many things (blowup, freedom, ndi, sam) need to be installed after MiNT.
As I said, I dont really know the implications of this, so if its not a
big problem, forget about it...
