    I created the directory on ftp-master before I released the advisory,
    but it always takes time for mirrors to catch up. We sometimes upload
    the patches in advance to give the mirrors time to catch up before the
    advisory goes out, but in this case (as in many others) we had a
    schedule to adhere to, and releasing the patches ahead of schedule
    might have placed other vendors at risk.
