I've just released Linux 2.4.36.9.

This version contains several fixes which are worth upgrading.
One of them fixes a possible local DoS using AF_UNIX sockets. The
other ones are less serious, and most of them are backports from
2.6-stable.

The patch and changelog will appear soon at the following locations:
