Nowhere handy right now. I'm doing RPM's of them (which makes a lot more
sense) since a src.rpm preserves the patches themselves whereas a tar
ball does not.

I've put a couple on ftp.uk.linux.org:/pub/linux/alan/Security but
see the README first.

gtk and imlib were already folded into Gtk/Gnome as of the 0.20 initial
release. Nmh in current Red Hat and Debian has the nmh fixes (about 157K
in that lot), and I think both should have the minicom fixes by now.

If someone wishes to become security-audit ftp keeper that would be great
