Major changes between sudo 1.9.17p2 and 1.9.17p1

 * Fixed a bug introduced in sudo 1.9.16 that could result in sudo
   sending SIGHUP to all processes on the system in certain rare
   cases.  The bug could manifest if sudo is running a command in
   a pseudo-terminal, sudo terminates the command due to an internal
   error, and the user's terminal is revoked.  GitHub issue #458.

 * Fixed a bug introduced in sudo 1.9.12 that caused sudo to abort
   when the "intercept" and "intercept_verify" options are enabled
   in sudoers and either the command line arguments or the environment
   contains a string larger than the page size (usually 4096).  This
   only Linux affects systems that support the ptrace_readv_string()
   function.  GitHub issue #453.

 * Fixed a bug in sudo's configure script introduced in sudo 1.9.17
   that prevented mdoc-format man pages from being used on systems
   without the mandoc utility.  Bug #1077.
