Gilles,
This doesn't sound like an exiv2 issue and I have no other feedback of related problems with exiv2 alone.
The exiv2 philosophy is to do exactly what the user asks for. It doesn't add or delete tags by itself and it doesn't modify tag types unless told to do so. But as the bug reporter (and the exiv2 man page) said, it will do things which are not consistent with the Exif standard if you ask it to.

Regarding default types, LONG is used for ImageWidth/Length as well as PixelX/YDimension tags, in conformance with the standard.
