Unfortunately, this is not true everywhere: e.g., "microwaverich" can reproduce the bug under 2.6.26-1-686. Another question: if you download the aptitude source and run "./configure && make" (after installing its build-deps, of course), do you get the bug when you run "./src/aptitude"? I have at least one report that just recompiling the current source makes the bug "go away". I doubt that's the fix; just more evidence that there's something very timing-dependent or perhaps memory-layout-dependent going on (the thing I don't see is why it's only reproducible on a few machines with particular builds, but reproducible 100% of the time under those circumstances).
