@framstag I'm going to assume that canonical is going to make some noise
to let people know that they'll need manual intervention?  Beyond
spreading the word there's not much else that can be done.

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.
