This was successful - it made crashing the machine pretty simple, even without activated libnss-db. To reproduce on Etch: - get the source of aptitude - apply the attached patch - rebuild the .deb, install it - while true; do aptitude -u; done Some of the aptitudes hit a SIGABRT before one got stuck.
