+
+  Varnish has been updated to 4.1.0. As part of the update an effort has
+  been made to increase the security of the varnish daemons by utilizing
+  separate UIDs. Users who upgrade will likely run into a permissions
+  issue as a result. The simplest solution is to delete files varnish
+  will recreate with the correct permissions and to adjust permissions
+  of existing log files.
+
+  The following changes will allow you to start varnishd, varnishlog,
+  and varnishncsa successfully:
+
+  # rm -r /usr/local/varnish/$(hostname)
+  # rm /var/run/varnishlog.pid
+  # rm /var/run/varnishncsa.pid
+  # chown varnishlog /var/log/varnish.log
+  # chown varnishlog /var/log/varnishncsa.log
