Bug#274198: problem is libexif10

[Rutger Bezema]

Package: exif
Version: 0.6.9-1
Followup-For: Bug #274198

The segmentationfault happens in libexif10.
the problem is the call (in the file exif-data.c)
exif_entry_get_value (em, value, sizeof(value)) which returns 0 which
cannot be strcmp -ied.
a (not very beautifull) patch would be
