My assessment was wrong, and upstream confirms the presence of the
behavior in one of their systems. I am waiting for debugging
instructions.

You can also reference the thread on exim-users, 
http://lists.exim.org/lurker/thread/20080502.092655.fa909510.en.html#20080502.092655.fa909510

I still do not think that it makes sense to work around the bug in the
packaging, I'd rather see the bug fixed in the actual code.
