+ Multiple buffer overflows have been reported in OpenTTD, when storing
+ long for client names (CVE-2008-3547), in the TruncateString function
+ in src/gfx.cpp (CVE-2008-3576) and in src/openttd.cpp when processing a
+ large filename supplied to the "-g" parameter in the ttd_main function
+ (CVE-2008-3577).
