It's useful to be explicit on which htslib versions were affected by this bug.

Fixes #2043

Comment thread NEWS Outdated
This caused unreliability reading of S3 data when using the
multi-region iterator. The bug affects 1.23 and 1.23.1.
Releases prior to 1.23 were unaffected.
(PR #2012. Thanks to Nick Edwards. Also fixes #2043 reported by atjock.)

I don't think the vcf.c stuff should be here.

Indeed not! Sorry. I was being lazy and forgot I'd had some ancient hacking around of vcf lurking in my directory.
