Thanks for the clarification regarding a8 vs. a9. Don't know where I've picked 
up the rumor so sorry for spreading it. And thank you for patching a9 so 
quickly!

Cheers
 Stefan

Hello all,

This has been patched in /dev now too.
The fixed package is 
pkg://openindiana.org/system/[email protected],5.11-0.151.1.9:20141210T124421Z

We're not aware of any reasons to prefer a8 over a9 for any use.

Regards,
Jon

Hmmm... while I find it pretty cool that we get a patch for this, it raises a 
question: is that the ultimate sign that all serious users will finally have to 
switch to hipster? Shellshock only for a9, zone panic patch only for hipster - 
is there any justification left for a8 which was previously called the revision 
designated for production use?

Cheers
Stefan
