This update includes the latest release of neon, version 0.28.6.
This fixes two security issues:

  * the billion laughs attack against expat could allow a Denial
  of Service attack by a malicious server.  (CVE-2009-2473)

  * an embedded NUL byte in a certificate subject name could allow
  an undetected MITM attack against an SSL server if a trusted CA
  issues such a cert.

Several bug fixes are also included, notably:

  * X.509v1 CA certificates are trusted by default

  * Fix handling of some PKCS#12 certificates
