Would you mind trying whether exim linked against libgnutls26 works
better? There is a binary on
http://www.bebt.de/debian/misc/exim4-daemon-heavy_4.69-2+b0.1_i386.deb
8adac55e378be8d8e00d0d02c8157a6f exim4-daemon-heavy_4.69-2+b0.1_i386.deb

This is a straight rebuild on sid withouth source changes, you can
also do a rebuild yourself if you'd rather not use third party
binaries.
