Update Information:

This verison of ack prevents the --pager, --regex and --output

options from being used from project-level ackrc files.  It is

possible to execute malicious code with these options, and we want

to prevent the security risk of acking through a potentially malicious

codebase, such as one downloaded from an Internet site or checked

out from a code repository.
