I am currently preparing an updated package, and will put it in the
following PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-security-
proposed/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages

Once it is built, as soon as someone can test it and make sure it solves
the issue, I will publish it.

Does anyone have steps to reproduce the issue?

Bug description:
  After taking security updates to 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14 on Lucid, calls to
  getservbyname() are causing segfaults; backtrace attached.  I suspect
  a failure in debian/patches/any/CVE-2013-4357.diff

  nscd is installed and in use as a caching layer for openldap, which
  use used for passwd, group, and shadow but not services.

  Needless to say, a security update that causes a regression which
  makes 'apt-get' segfault is quite unfortunate.
