Hi all,

If you use mac, be careful of the latest security update.  The security
update dealt with providing safeguards against font libraries that could
possibly execute arbitrary code on your machine.

I've noticed that it will <delete> your X11 windowing program, and render
using the analyzer, gedit, emacs, etc. to appear to not work (i.e., hang).

If you need to re-download X11, go here:
