[Bug-wget] the libidn problem

[Daniel Stenberg]

Hi,

The libidn issue that was previously reported[1], is still outstanding and 
hasn't been fixed in libidn. This keeps wget vulnerable.

I've just recommended[2] libcurl users to disable libidn until this gets 
resolved, as it seems it may drag on and keeping vulnerable code around is not 
good.
