Bug#32140: Apt Segmentation fault

[Nick Holgate <nick@bvmltd.co.uk>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.1.9.0.1

Apt aborts with "Segmentation fault".

e.g. 
$ apt-get update
Get http://xxx.yyy.zzz slink/main Packages

Segmentation fault

Apt seems to function correctly apart from this, but dselect aborts with an
error if using its apt method. This fault is consistantly seen on all 4 of
my installations. I have a feeling that it started occuring when updating
another package, perhaps libc6 or bash, but I can't be sure.
