Well, shucks. More fixing up for this will be required ;)

Could you please confirm whether that was always with openvpn? We've
been testing precise the VPN cases, it seemed to work, so if we're
seeing crashes now we really should be getting both an apport crash, and
we should have caught it already :/

Title:
  network-manager can't start openvpn connection with "dns=dnsmasq" in
  /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I was trying to set up an OpenVPN connection on Precise, but it kept
  failing. It seemed like n-m was crashing every time the connection was
  established. A crash is logged by the kernel, but not picked up by
  apport.

  NetworkManager[1087]: segfault at 0 ip 00000000004447a7 sp
  00007fff24de2d50 error 4 in NetworkManager[400000+d6000]

  After removing the new "dns=dnsmasq" line from
  /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf it works again.
