It was reproducible, but now it isn't!  It works fine now.
Also, I have another, very similar, box, and it never had a problem.

I may have done an aptitude update since the original problems;
otherwise, I can't think what would be different--unless the external
data has changed.

Other possibly relevant info: the system is dual processor Athlon.  The
original problem appeared while running a weekly cron job (that is, the
debtags update was part of the cron job).

The cron job from the preceding week ran without incident.

I thought gdb wasn't so useful without a debug version of the program.
Is that impression incorrect?

Since the problem seems to have gone away, you may want to close this
bug.  Or you could see if anyone else (including me) runs into it
again....
