[KimDaBa] Problem with image orientation

I'm having a problem with EXIF image orientation sometimes being
ignored, using the 12/29 snapshot and exiv 0.8. Reading the EXIF
information often results in images always being in position 0 (top,
right), even if I shot them in portrait mode.
This seems to be more of a problem with .crw files than with .jpg
files. Looking at fileinfo.cpp, it appears that the orientation
string is being returned correctly; the problem is that it's not being
translated into the correct angle (more specifically, the orientation
is always being returned as 0).
Sorry this is a bit rushed; I just returned from vacation. I could
send a couple of test images if required.
