[wiz]

/var/log/kern.log is littered with libkrb5support.so errors:

There's also an error when i run ssh under gdb:

(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/ssh 
Error while mapping shared library sections:
`/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libkrb5support.so.0': not in executable format: File format not recognized

Title:
  sshd: preauth child terminated by signal 11

Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Can't connect to a local installation of openssh-server.

  ssh localhost fails with "Broken pipe", here's the tail of ssh -vv:

  ...
  debug1: Enabling compression at level 6.
  debug1: Authentication succeeded (publickey).
  Authenticated to localhost ([127.0.0.1]:22).
  debug1: channel 0: new [client-session]
  debug2: channel 0: send open
  debug1: Requesting no-more-sessions at openssh.com
  debug1: Entering interactive session.
  Write failed: Broken pipe

  Those lines are appearing in auth.log:

  Sep 26 14:09:10 natali sshd[6076]: Accepted publickey for wiz from 127.0.0.1 port 48624 ssh2
  Sep 26 14:09:10 natali sshd[6076]: fatal: privsep_preauth: preauth child terminated by signal 11

  Also, any ssh invocation (even -h) ends with "Segmentation fault":
