What's new in Sudo 1.7.4?
* Sudoedit will now preserve the file extension in the name of the
temporary file being edited. The extension is used by some
editors (such as emacs) to choose the editing mode.
* Time stamp files have moved from /var/run/sudo to either /var/db/sudo,
/var/lib/sudo or /var/adm/sudo. The directories are checked for
existence in that order. This prevents users from receiving the
sudo lecture every time the system reboots. Time stamp files older
than the boot time are ignored on systems where it is possible to
determine this.
* Ancillary documentation (README files, LICENSE, etc) is now installed
in a sudo documentation directory.
* Sudo now recognized "tls_cacert" as an alias for "tls_cacertfile"
in ldap.conf.
* Defaults settings that are tied to a user, host or command may
now include the negation operator. For example:
Defaults:!millert lecture
will match any user but millert.
* The default PATH environment variable, used when no PATH variable
exists, now includes /usr/sbin and /sbin.
* Sudo now uses polypkg (http://rc.quest.com/topics/polypkg/)
for cross-platform packing.
* On Linux, sudo will now restore the nproc resource limit before
executing a command, unless the limit appears to have been modified
by pam_limits. This avoids a problem with bash scripts that open
more than 32 descriptors on SuSE Linux, where sysconf(_SC_CHILD_MAX)
will return -1 when RLIMIT_NPROC is set to RLIMIT_UNLIMITED (-1).

Mac OS X, and Linux systems with the devpts filesystem (pseudo-ttys
only).
* Support for multiple 'sudoers_base' entries in ldap.conf. When
multiple bases are listed, sudo will try each one in the order
that they are specified.
* On AIX systems, the registry setting in /etc/security/user is
now taken into account when looking up users and groups. Sudo
now applies the correct the user and group ids when running a
command as a user whose account details come from a different
source (e.g. LDAP or DCE vs. local files).
* Support for multiple 'sudoers_base' and 'uri' entries in ldap.conf.
When multiple entries are listed, sudo will try each one in the
order in which they are specified.
* Sudo's SELinux support should now function correctly when running
commands as a non-root user and when one of stdin, stdout or stderr
