I currently maintain libexif but am not a DD, so I can't upload the
binary packages as per your workflow.

I've prepared a debdiff covering all outstanding CVEs and two
instances of undefined behaviour.

Internal tests pass at build time. The patches are the same as those
used in Sid, as the upstream version has not changed.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if you need anything else. Feel
free to adjust the changelog.

Hugh
