This bug has been addressed for stable in DSA-863, it's only etch/sid
which have to be fixed. The package has two maintainers, but I can't
trace recent activity for any of them.

I've prepared updated packages for xine-lib, which fix this security
issue and the FTBFS-bug. They thus fix 2 RC bugs (or 3 if you count
merged separately). The diff is attached, the updated packages can be
found here: http://www.a-eskwadraat.nl/~kink/xine-lib/

Since I can't upload them myself, maybe someone else can review and
upload?

regards,
Thijs
