 It seems it is already known by debian developers, but a note for
 upgraders: there is a separate issue on *some* machines where dpkg will
 fail because its tar subprocess segfaults:
  Unpacking replacement libsasl7 ...
  dpkg-deb: subprocess tar killed by signal (Segmentation fault)

 Same recommendation as for the other problem: don't upgrade right now.
