	yup, the package is now -vz instead of -mz.

	I think the intent is to only release critical patches
such as PSIRT types of issues.  If there was some other major
software defect i'm guessing that might get patched as well, but
I know there is a lot of fear of having too many patches and how
to do testing of a giant patch set/suite.

	If they do anything aside from just PSIRT, i'm guessing
it would be incremental roll-up updates (eg: SXF4 -> SXF5)
