Apple deserves a beating

This time again with the long and heavy stick. They did not bother to remove the Password-ends-up-in-swapfile bug in the OS X 10.3.5 update and the latest security fix. I know that they need to set their priorities, and fixing remote exploit possibilities clearly comes first. But that such a trivial bug (making the password entry function non-swapping should not be a problem) survives a security update weeks later could lead me to suspect an intentional backdoor to make up for their file vault encryption...
