- Add "vsftpd-die-with-session.patch" to fix a bug in vsftpd that
  would cause SSL protocol errors, aborting the connection, whenever
  system errors occurred that were supposed to be non-fatal.
  [bsc#1044292]

- Add "vsftpd-mdtm-in-utc.patch" to fix interoperability issue with
  various ftp clients that arose when vsftpd is configured with
  option "use_localtime=YES". Basically, it's fine to use local time
  stamps in directory listings, but responding to MDTM commands with
  any time zone other than UTC directly violates RFC3659 and leads
  FTP clients to misinterpret the file's time stamp. [bsc#1024961]

- Add "vsftpd-append-seek-pipe.patch" to allow the FTP server to
  append to a file system pipe. [bsc#1048427]

- Add "vsftpd-3.0.3-address_space_limit.patch" to create the new
  configuration option "address_space_limit", which determines the
  memory limit vsftpd configures for its own process (given in
  bytes). The previously hard-coded limit (100 MB) may not be
  sufficient for vsftpd servers running with certain PAM modules
  enabled, and in such cases administrators may wish to raise the
  limit to match their system's requirements. [bsc#1042137]

- Don't rely on the vsf_findlibs.sh script to figure out the list
  of libraries the build needs to link. The script is wildly
  unreliable and it's hard to predict what results it will produce.
  Also, the results it *does* produce are invisble in the build
  log. We stumbled across this issue when vsftpd suddendly had
  build failures on i586 platforms because the script decided to
  try and link "-lnsl" even though the library was neither
  installed nor required.  

- Drop the explicit specification of the LDFLAGS and LINK variables
  from the call to make. The value of LDFLAGS we passed is the
  default anyway and giving LINK has no effect since it's not used
