Binary package hint: awstats

Hello,

the bug exists in every Ubuntu/Debian/Upstream version (6.7.dfsg-1ubuntu0.1, 6.9~dfsg-1ubuntu3, 6.9.5~dfsg-4, 7.0 development branch, etc).
It was probably introduced with the first version of the GeoIP-plugin (which was yonks ago) and is living happily since then.
