I don't know about a hoax but I completely agree with your recommendation. 
Editing code in a panic on the basis of one email to a list would be 
unwise. For all we know at this point, the address was spoofed and the edit 
is the exploit.

I am not suggesting it is, just that anything can happen. That link brings 
up a 404 page for me and I can't find a word about it on any of the 
security sites, Google or Yahoo. If it does exist, it is not in the wild yet.
