Security update to version 0.8.2

Changes:

Security fix for CVE-2006-2450, remote authentication bypass
in libvncserver.

Notified by the upstream maintainer, Karl Runge via PR pkg/34050

New in the 0.8.2 x11vnc release:
================================

  Support for full mouse and keyboard input into the Linux
          console framebuffer /dev/fb0 in -rawfb mode
          (i.e. non-X11) by using the Linux "uinput" driver.

          This enables, for example, viewing and interacting
          with Qt-embedded/Qtopia-Core apps on Linux-based
          handhelds, etc.

          Options:   -rawfb cons, -pipeinput UINPUT More info:
          http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/#faq-qt-embedded

  Extension of the display option: -display WAIT:<disp-or-cmd>
          to delay x11vnc's opening of the X display
          until a VNC client connects (useful built-in:
          -display WAIT:cmd=FINDDISPLAY, to find a user's
          display and Xauthority data).

  Options -grabkbd and -grabptr have x11vnc try to grab
          the X display when VNC clients are connected to
          prevent a (non-malicious) user at the physical X
          display from performing keyboard or mouse input.
          E.g. remote help-desk support.


 miscellaneous new features and changes:

  -allowedcmds option to fine-tune which external commands
          may be run by x11vnc, rather than shutting
          them all off with -nocmds.
  -env VAR=VALUE convenience option to avoid the need of
          setting environment variables before starting
          x11vnc.
  -allinput option to enable libvncserver handleEventsEagerly
          parameter (not clear it yields an improvement).
  -rawfb rand  fun/testing option using /dev/urandom as a fb.
  -license, -copying, -warranty option.

New in the 0.8.1 x11vnc release:
================================

  Improved support for webcams and TV tuners with video4linux
          /dev/video: see the "-rawfb video" and "-pipeinput VID"
          options. (the latter gives a simple keyboard control
          of a TV tuner; see also the -freqtab option for stations).

  FBPM support for hardware that provides framebuffer power
          management (it needs to be disabled when vnc clients
          are connected).

  The -usepw option will require x11vnc to use a password of
          some sort or otherwise exit immediately.  Put it in
          your ~/.x11vncrc so you don't forget.

  The command "x11vnc -storepasswd" will prompt for a password
          without echoing and save it in ~/.vnc/passwd

  The X CLIPBOARD selection is managed in addition to the
                X PRIMARY selection.

 miscellaneous new features and changes:

  Convenience option for accessing the Linux console: -rawfb cons
          etc. (requires /dev/fb0 to be working).

  clipboard/cut-text input can now be managed on a per-client
          basis.

  -capslock and -skip_lockkeys options can help make CapsLock work
          better.

  The Xdummy wrapper script is included in the source tree.

  A mode "-gone popup" as been added.

  -24to32 option to avoid 24bpp problems.

  -xinerama is on by default.
