Not many, IMHO. While few have had their code audited, equally few will
also accept incoming (potentially malicious) data from the outside world.
Apache and openssl/ssh are obvious ones that do, and they *have* been
audited (even then, problems occasionally slip though, like the recent
ssh and mod_ssl problems).
