             maint = maintenance releases; bug fixes only
             bugfix = unplanned releases for critical/security bugs

COMPILATION:

      See the INSTALL file for more details.

      Notes:
            * use SUID_CFLAGS and SUID_LDFLAGS when you want to define special
              compiler options for typical suid programs, for example:

                  ./configure SUID_CFLAGS="-fpie" SUID_LDFLAGS="-pie"

              This feature is currently supported for chfn, chsh, newgrp,
              write, mount, and umount.
