Oh yeah. I noticed this bug before, when I was using Marillat's
packages. It is induced by some trickery around including the headers,
because of even more stupidity around the library API and ABI.
Given that only a 'correct' version exists in Debian, I would be
inclined just to remove this trickery, and not worry about it.
