This might not be the case, but regarding CAN-2002-0391 (which is included in PLD) a second Debian advisory war published, stating:

Wolfram Gloger discovered that the bugfix from DSA 149-1 unintentially replaced potential integer overflows in connection with malloc() with more likely divisions by zero.  This called for an update.

I don't know if this is only relevant to the Debian advisory or possibly to other ones as well.

The relevant Debian advisory is:DSA 149-2

Thanks for checking.
