Well, the bug submitter has never responded to your request for more
information.  Santiago Garcia Mantinan <manty@debian.org> played
around quite a bit and couldn't reproduce the problem.

What he _did_ saw was this:

14:29 < manty> Found label 'Debian GNU/Linux 2.3 "Woody" - Unofficial
               i386 Binary-1
14:29 < manty> (20010720)'This Disc is called:
14:29 < manty>  'Debian GNU/Linux 2.3 _Woody_ - Unofficial i386
               Binary-1 (20010720)'
14:29 < manty> Reading Package Indexes... Done
14:29 < manty> Wrote 1642 records with 5849 missing files.
14:29 < manty> Alot of entries were discarded, something may be wrong.
14:29 < manty> Reading Source Indexes... Done
14:29 < manty> Wrote 0 records with 4465 missing files.
14:29 < manty> W: No valid records were found.
14:29 < manty> E: Handler silently failed

But unless I'm missing something this is not the seg fault reported in
the bug.

The changes have been reverted anyway.  But the question how to
implement it still remains open...

Anyway, apt doesn't break anymore since the code in debian-cd has been
reverted, so I suggest you downgrade this bug to important.
