Fix for CVE-2010-1440
From Jan Lieskovsky <jlieskov@redhat.com>

  we decided to treat the CVE-2010-1440 issue as a completely
  new tetex / texlive issue, rather than an incomplete fix for CVE-2010-0739
  (in fact, the reproducer for CVE-2010-0739 is only catalyst / accelerator
  to see this flaw on ppc architecture, but in fact, it's another occurrence
  of integer overflow in teTeX / TeXLive code).
