I went to do this but sadly, it no longer builds due to gcc8.  There
are upstream patches that could be cherry-picked but it's certainly no
longer simply a matter of importing the security update.

I am going to look at these failures since they are blocking my
package refactoring work and I expect that as an output I will produce
a list of upstream commits to cherry pick, which I will send to this
bug.
