Yes: we didn't keep up with upstream 2.50.x so there are a bunch of
unrelated fixes (2.50.4 up to .7) which would be out of scope for a
security update. If it was a package I knew better then I might be
advocating the new upstream release, but I can't really assess risk vs
benefit for librsvg, so cherry-picking the equivalent of .8 and .9 seems
more conservative.

compiles successfully, I'll try it in a bullseye VM next.
