[VIM] First CVE of 2009 :)

OK, 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

The first CVE that was originally public in 2009 was CVE-2008-2381
(reserved), public on 20090102.

The first public CVE with a 2009 tag was CVE-2009-0022 (reserved by Red
Hat), public on 20090105.  (Last year's winner was CVE-2008-0061, public
on 20080103; in 2007, CVE-2007-0015 was public on 20070101).

Due to an odd little blip in CVE content creation, the first non-reserved
CVE built on public data is still forthcoming, though many are waiting in
the wings for the final editing step, including two that were published
January 1 that will likely appear after higher-priority issues that were
published later than that.  Its sequence number will be 0041 or greater.

As you may surmise, CVE numbers don't go public sequentially.  That's
because of the reserved CVEs, our internal prioritization for which issues
to publish first, and vacation/holiday oddities.

More useless trivia to follow, no doubt...
