I haven't upgraded to 3.3.15-5 either precisely because of these
segfaults[*]. That's why versioned dependencies are really important
when needed: having them allows one to block the buggy upgrade of
wget in such cases. This may also be important in case of problem
during a full upgrade, so that "apt-get install -f" works as
expected, if needed.

[*] I suppose that this has now been solved with curl 7.42.1-3,
which has been rebuilt against libnettle6. libcurl3-gnutls 7.42.1-3
has:

Depends: [...] libgnutls-deb0-28 (>= 3.3.15-5), [...] libnettle6, [...]

So, wget needs to have something similar.
