Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-5
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Since upgrading libc6 to 2.3.1 (because certain new packages in sid depend upon 
2.3.1), none of the GTK
1.2 applications work anymore; they all SIGSEG, according to gdb.  Downgrading 
to the previous version
of libc6 (2.5.x - what's currently in testing) fixes the problem.  

Apps affected include: sylpheed, xmms, gqview, gaim, dia, gnome-pim... among 
those I can remember. 

See an example of what gdb tells, in my sylpheed bug report (Bug#110091).
