Update:

- dmalloc shows up nothing.
- memcpy() calls seem legitimate after checking with an interpositioning tool.

I've attempted both a top-down and bottom-up approach to hone in on this
issue:

- I've attempted to stimulate a segv by writing an app doing "similar" things 
to "dpkg -l" but no joy in recreating issue yet.
- I am currently stripping dpkg down to a "minimal testcase" which exhibits the 
stack smashing behaviour...
