The updated packages from DSA-2154-1 introduced a regression which
prevented unprivileged users from using 'exim4 -bf' to test filter
configurations. This update fixes this problem.

Please also read the information provided in DSA-2154-1 if you have
not done so already.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in

(sid), this problem will be fixed soon.
