Argh. It definitely does contain the vulnerable code. teTeX maintainers:
can you explain how this code is used? If it is used for reading PDFs, then
this is a security problem and needs to be fixed in the stable releases, and
I need to know ASAP.
In any case, this code should be updated from a fixed version of xpdf.
