I noticed a (seemingly) related build failure over the weekend:

https://launchpadlibrarian.net/208521008/buildlog_ubuntu-wily-amd64.degu_0.14.0~alpha~bzr339~ubuntu15.10.1_BUILDING.txt.gz

As this is a failure (seemingly) caused by an independent SSL implementation (openssl), I wonder if the underlying problem might be in ca-certificates rather than gnutls.

Of course, no matter how broken ca-certificates might/might-not be in Wily, I reckon a SEGFAULT from gnutls could be indicative of some "very bad things", possibly even an exploitable attack vector.

Subject: [Ubuntu-phone] SEGFAULT in silos - Was Re:  Landing team 09.06.15

There is a critical issue in Wily which is blocking landings for some
projects, as builds fail in silos due to a SEGFAULT when attempting to
run binaries which use gnutls (if you use any network stacks with SSL,
this likely means you).

The issue is now reported in a bug[1463875] as well.
