I found the bug -- might be related to your Hugin crash too, since it seems like
a common issue in libexiv2 "clients".

Technicalities: it seems like your camera didn't store the Exif "orientation"
tag, or stored multiple values. In any case, the call to libexiv2 failed when
reading that particular metadatum. So I just workarounded it adding a check,
you can see the patch at [1]. You might want to link it to the hugin
maintainer, if you're going to report a bug (granted, it could be totally
unrelated too :))

I'm going to make an upload to experimental for this.
I don't know if this will be accepted in sid (for inclusion into Squeeze), but
I'll give a try :)

Thank you for your bugreport,
David
