This function sometimes deletes destNode during a loop, which could cause a crash on the next iteration of the loop. To avoid that, the function should return after calling delete.

This was reported as a vulnerability, but the reporters couldn't find a way to trigger this from the Exiv2 command line app, and had to write a custom main function to reproduce the issue. So I'm treating this as a regular bug that doesn't need a CVE. I'll copy their full report below.
