[Python-Dev] Are buffer overflows in modules deleted in py3k ignorable?

I'm reviewing http://bugs.python.org/issue2591, which is marked as
'security' because it is a potential buffer overflow.  almodule.c has
been dropped in py3k, so my impulse is to close the bug as "won't fix".
But I thought I should check in to find out what the policy is before
doing that since it is a 'security' bug.
