It fixes one particularly nasty bug that led to ~/.cache/fonts growing indefinitely and slowing down the system.
FreeBSD has already switched to it, as well as many other distros.

Greetings! After three months in /testing, the PAM merge into the main tree
is now complete. When updating, be sure to install the new pam, cracklib, and
libpwquality packages..............

This is a somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and just a curiosity and a whim, but given that Slackware is the most "Unix-like" Linux, it would be nice to have CDE included, now that it at last has a free license:

Joking aside, I do find CDE intriguing - but I doubt it will ever be included let alone in /extra, plus it seems like work has stopped(?). The main issue now I think is the install paths are still hard coded - there is an open ticket still open but that is like from 2-3 years ago and no update on that. I actually would legit still like to see some kind of slackbuilds available just for fun; and I think other than the hard coded issue I think if I am not mistaken, the main security issue of running RPC in an insecure mode was at least addressed(?), but I am not entirely sure about that.
so onigposix.h will be included in the package. It builds fine on a cleaned -current install.
onigposix.h is needed to build libevhtp, I don't know if including it will have negative impact on php's mbstring.
It seems onigposix.h isn't built by default anymore since somewhere between 6.8.2 and 6.9.5_rev1.
