Aha.  I have linked the two bugs together now, to allow BTS to track the
two alongside each other.

As this bug make the linuxcnc package fail to start, ie 'make unreleated
software on the system break', I believe the correct severity for this
issue is critical.

Note, in the upstream bug there seem to be reluctance to both reinsert
the symbol and bump the SONAME, claiming programs using this symbol
should be changed instead.  It seem like a good idea in any case to fix
libtk-img, but that would be independent of the need for a SONAME bump
due to the ABI change.
