Further Comments/Problems:
Following the instructions in the release notes I installed aptitude.
Then the following:
# aptitude update
Segmentation fault
In fact, any invocation of "aptitude" causes a segfault. The strace is
similar, though not identical, to the one in #305877.

Yes, this is a general bug with woody g++ on hppa: it does not handle
exceptions correctly (Aptitude is written in C++).
To catter for that problem, Frans Pop has changed the release notes for
hppa to the following:
----------------------
4.5.1 Updating the package list
First the list of available packages for the new release needs to be fetched. This is done by executing[2]:
# apt-get update
4.5.2 Upgrading aptitude
Upgrade tests have shown that sarge's version of aptitude is better at solving the complex dependencies during an upgrade than either apt-get or woody's aptitude. It should therefore be installed first using:
# apt-get install aptitude
aptitude will show you a list of the changes that will be made and ask you to confirm them. You should take a careful look at the proposed changes, especially packages that will be removed by the upgrade, before you confirm.
----------------------
so I am closing this bug.
Thanks a lot to have raised that issue!
