Many users may have the problem that they cannot upgrade immediately to
25.3.  Is it fair to say that putting the above lines of code in
~/.emacs fully protects the user from the vulnerability?  If yes, we may
want to advertise these lines of code more broadly.  Or do the above
lines of code provide only an incomplete fix?  Then, what can users do
instead when they still have to use older versions of emacs?
