Every time I get a few spare hours I glance over list of packages
needing work, and tagged security:
http://qa.debian.org/bts-security.html
Of the packages listed there 23 out of the 147 entries contain
patches, (some of these patches may well be bogus).
So it seems like a simple matter to apply and rebuild them, short
of performing an NMU it seems that there's little a random developer
could do.
Adding more patches is something I could manage, and others too, but
I'd worry that they'd just get left there growing old along with the
others......
