Attached patch fixes viewing of images with bad exif exposure info.

I had a git master version of gimp that produced odd exif data, which in turn
made F-spot crash in viewing mode, when trying to format the bad data for
display.
I've had this patch in a private branch, rebased from master now and then, and
it works well.

Looks like this could be a quick and dirty fix for bug 591301 as well, even if it's not a perfect solution.
