### SECURITY BUGFIX ###
- Fetchnews: when a. minlines=0 (default) and b. delaybody=0 (default) and
either c. no filterfile is configured (default) or a. and b. and d.
article_despite_filter=1 are configured, an article with missing mandatory
headers and without body can hang fetchnews and/or prevent the fetch of
further articles from the current group or server.
Reported by Toni Viemerö, SourceForge bug 873149.
This was a denial-of-service bug, not one that could lead to local or remote
privilege escalation.

While I'm here [2]:
- simplify/shorten post-install target a bit by using few new variables
and unrolling loops
- rename ${PREFIX}/share/doc/leafnode/doc_german to just .../german.
I think extra "doc_" there is unnecessary
- s/ECHO/ECHO_MSG/
- whitespace changes to shorten line lengths in Makefile

I received "mailbox full" messages when I tried to contact

the time being ('till I hear from Patrick).
