This is getting ridiculous now. You know that buffer overflows can be
extremely difficult to spot, even by the author himself. If you are
equating that with a malicious attack, then I don't really understand
what it is you are proposing. Having people mail in patches to people
with CVS access all the time has its own problems - CVS committers may
just start applying patches without looking them over or not really
finding these buffer overflow bugs, so what's the difference who commits
the code?

Any sufficiently advanced bug is
indistinguishable from a feature.
