[Bug 83041] When rotating files, every other rotation rotates 180 instead of 90

[Matthew Koyle]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gthumb

In gthumb, when rotating jpeg files, every other rotation seems to over-
rotate.

I open gthumb, search my pictures directory and review pictures.  I then
rotate individual files (using the drop-down or the '[' or ']' keys).
When I rotate multiple pictures (by selecting more than one or by
rotating one at a time), some of the pictures rotate 180 degrees in
stead of 90 degrees.  This happened in Edgy gthumb and now happens in
Feisty gthumb.  I can make the image rotate the other way 90 degrees,
but it is a bit or an irritating problem.

Not sure if being AMD64 is part of the problem.  Thanks.
