Any? That would mean it would have been easy to test whether the update
works at all, but either it has been marked stable without any testing
or at a time when it worked:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libgdl-2.31.3-1.fc14

There's a package related RFE in bugzilla which is unanswered since June.
The package is assigned to only one person:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/libgdl

If a downgrade (with an Epoch bump) is the only way forward, it would
still be good to have the current packager comment on that. Or somebody
who is familiar enough with libgdl and would also show interest in 
joining Fedora's group of packagers in order to help with libgdl and
related packages.
