Public bug reported: So this is happening in an up-to-date Natty i386 server install running in a KVM virtual machine.
SSH connections to the server are fine; however using ssh from the server (either to a remote host or localhost) results in an immediate segmentation fault as soon as the connection to the target server is made: jamespage@natty-infrastructure-manager:~$ ssh -vvv localhost OpenSSH_5.7p1 Debian-1ubuntu1, OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Applying options for * debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0 debug1: Connecting to localhost [127.0.0.1] port 22. debug1: Connection established.
