Yup, I have a patch for most of the bugs, at:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi/diff-vcg-bugs?bug=224255;msg=27;att=1
#270899 is not fixed by that patch, though.
BTW; Matej suggests that vcg is likely going to be removed from the
archive unless someone adopts it. I think its interesting software,
but I don't consider myself a user, or a prospective maintainer.
