[Stackless] Stackless to address multiple buffer overflow vulnerability?

Recently a multiple buffer overflow vulnerability advisory was posted for all versions of Python except 2.5.2-r6 and 2.4.4-r14 (see 
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/30491).

Is Stackless being patched to address these vulnerabilities?  I'm currently using Stackless 2.4.3 but could probably upgrade to 
2.5.2.  Which give rise to another question:  is Stackless 2.5.2 vulnerable?

Many thanks.
