Hi Tim,

I updated the bug with some new images that are problematic.

A clean checkout of f-spot did work much better with the previous images, but 
my library still does not import correctly. On the bright side, before, it 
would use full CPU and max out RAM and crash. Now, it gets through it, though 
it takes forever.

I think we're close. :)
