So what those debian bugs show is that there are a couple of problems
with djvulibre that need patching.  What you should do is file a bug
against the djvulibre package giving the URLs to these two bugs, and
asking that the debian patches be applied to the Fedora package.

Alternatively, since djvulibre 3.5.21 was released after debian
patched their version, you could ask the maintainer to upgrade to
3.5.21 and see if that fixes the problem.  (Debian squeeze and sid
both have 3.5.21, by the way.)  Note that debian has patched 3.5.21,
too, in response to a few bug reports; see
http://packages.debian.org/sid/djvulibre-bin.
