Problems with Data Types, Low Severity (4)

	Change	Effect
1	Value of member PHOTO_FIELD_LAST has been changed from 42 to 48.	Applications may execute a wrong branch of code in the library and therefore change the behavior.

flickcurl.h
[+] enum flickcurl_photo_field_type (1)
[+] struct flickcurl_photo_s (1)

	Change	Effect
1	Size of this type has been changed from 536 bytes to 608 bytes.	The fields or parameters of such data type may be incorrectly initialized or accessed by old client applications.
