+* On ARM EABI (32-bit), generating a backtrace for execution contexts which
have been created with makecontext could fail to terminate due to a
missing .cantunwind annotation. This has been observed to lead to a hang
(denial of service) in some Go applications compiled with gccgo. Reported
by Andreas Schwab. (CVE-2016-6323)
+* The DNS stub resolver functions would crash due to a NULL pointer
