The security stuff isn't relevant to the 9.0 notes, since it's already
been fixed in a previous release. In general we don't document bug
fixes in a major release if they already appeared in previous
back-patches; the major release notes are quite verbose enough without
such duplication. (In effect, the idea is that major release notes
should represent the delta from the previous major release *as it stood
at the time of the new major release*.)
