Although wml has an embedded copy of Libtool's ltdl.c, it is not
affected by this bug.

The possibly vulnerable file is located in a unused directory containing
mp4h source code.  Mp4h has its own source package, which builds the
binary package of the same name.  Wml uses the executable provided by
the package mp4h, instead of building it by itself.

I also checked this by comparing file access times before and after
I build the package.

The source package wml has a lot of unused files, this could be
documented in README.Source.  Since Debian ships a repackaged wml
anyway, these files could also be removed from the tarball.  An other
option is simply closing this bug.  This decision is up to the
maintainer, I just change the severity and remove the security tag.

Carsten
