>Description:
Document neon CVE-2009-2473 and CVE-2009-2474 entry.

Update for neon ports are send to freebsd-ports-bugs and lev at FreeBSD

See PR: 
- ports/138991: [patch] port neon26 CVE-2009-2474 and CVE-2009-2474
- ports/138337: [patch] port neon28 update to 28.6

There is a note on the vuxml site which points to http://security.freebsd.org/
and here is a note to send issues to the address at 
http://www.vuxml.org/freebsd/.

A first note was send end of Aug 2009 to secteam_(at)_FreeBSD.org and
security-team_(at)FreeBSD.org but I guess it is gone to /dev/null.

Maybe someone can make this proof with a note like send issues to 
secteam-($RND replace like the officer one) _(at)_FreeBSD ?

I set prio to high, since I got no answer from lev since the last 20 days.
