* Upload with approval from Release Team to get RC bug fixes in Squeeze
  (see http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2010/12/msg00719.html)
* do_command.c, popen.c:
  - Use fork() instead of vfork().
* do_command.c:
  - Close an unused stream in the fork()ed child prior to exec'ing the
    user's command, thereby avoiding an fd leak. Closes: #604181, LP: #665912
    Previously to this, in conjunction with LVM, the fd leak may have the
    effect of the user being spammed by warnings every time a cron job was
    executed.
* crontab.5:
  - Fixed the example demonstrating how to run a job on a certain weekday of
    the month (date range was off-by-one). Also, the same example contained
    a superfluous escape, resulting in wrong output. Closes: #606325
* cron.init:
  - Added $named to Should-Start, in case @reboot jobs need DNS resolution.
    Closes: #602903
  - Added nslcd to Should-Start. LP: #27520
