Hello.  Yes, the patch is OK.  Sorry for leaving clutter in it, though.

When preparing the update, I based my work on the xpdf patches, but they
were against a different xpdf version than the one that's used in kpdf
and didn't apply cleanly.  I manually ported the patch to the xpdf
version used by kpdf, but apparently didn't clean up after the earlier
work.

The patched kpdf version has been tested against a set of pdf files
known to trigger the problems in the vulnerable versions.
