* .bzrignore (plugins.d/askpass-fifo): Added.

* Makefile (FORTIFY): Added "-fstack-protector-all".
  (mandos, mandos-keygen): Use more strict regexps when updating the
                           version number.

* mandos (Client.__init__): Use os.path.expandvars() and
                            os.path.expanduser() on the "secfile"
                            config value.

* plugins.d/splashy.c: Update comments and order of #include's.
  (main): Check user and group when looking for running splashy
          process.  Do not ignore ENOENT from execl().  Use _exit()
          instead of "return" when an error happens in child
          processes.  Bug fix: Only wait for splashy_update
          completion if it was started.  Bug fix: detect failing
          waitpid().  Only kill splashy_update if it is running.  Do
          the killing of the old splashy process before the fork().
          Do setsid() and setuid(geteuid()) before starting the new
          splashy.  Report failing execl().

* plugins.d/usplash.c: Update comments and order of #include's.
  (main): Check user and group when looking for running usplash
          process.  Do not report execv() error if interrupted by a
          signal.
