The issue I have here with exo is just library soname and package
versioning.  If we release it to unstable we need to ensure that either:
	- when it's properly released upstream bump the soname
	- when we release it as a snapshot we /decrement/ the soname

But Benny is sane so hopefully if you raise this with him he can
guarantee that when a real version is released that the soname is
increased.

I'll try and play with xfce4-terminal and xfmedia a bit both with old
exo and new exo.
