I'll check again tonight on amd64.  The problem is specifically on amd64;
if you're checking on i386, you may not see it.  I wasn't seeing any
symbol versioning in readelf.

According to valgrind, the backtrace showed the segfaults definitely in
functions called by libpam-heimdal, not by openssh itself.  I'll include
the backtrace when I get home and can reproduce it.

gdb doesn't produce a usable backtrace (probably because of the library
confusion).  Only valgrind would work for me, and only with a rebuilt
libpam-heimdal with debugging information.
