Commit 632180d1 introduced memory corruption in

This has been assigned CVE-2013-4239 (a read-only client can crash or
otherwise interfere with read-write clients). v1.1.1 is the only
impacted release, and only if you compiled with xen support; and
v1.1.1-maint already includes the backport of this patch. Thanks again
for a quick fix.
