Sarah, thanks for the reminder; I had my one remaining outstanding
question answered to my satisfaction: http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail
/nginx-devel/2014-February/005038.html -- in short, I hadn't realized
X509_NAME_oneline() would escape the ascii NUL character when converting
from ASN.1 to a C-representable string.

We're currently stuck because the Debian-derived packaging includes an
out-of-tree module that builds against lua-5.1. It cannot compile
against lua-5.2 (the lua-5.2 changes are drastically not backwards
compatible with lua-5.1), but lua-5.2 is the lua package that is going
to be supported in Ubuntu trusty tahr.

If it were up to me alone, I'd disable the lua module. Lua 5.2 has been
out for over two years and if this module hasn't updated yet, there's no
reason for me to suspect they will update before we need to release
14.04.

Thanks
