 We have been shipping Polipo with several known security holes for which
 both exploit code and patches have been available for well over a year.
 We can apply the patches we have, but Polipo is too much of a mess for us
 to keep fixing.

 Removing Polipo will require ''a lot'' of work from a lot of people; this
 is a parent ticket for all tickets related to Polipo removal.
