I was thinking an entry in README.Debian or similar would be appropriate.

Two factors here:
1) As described in the original bug report the segfault happens some
time after startup (1 minute in my case) - I suspect the time it crashes
is the first time a perl check plugin is used.
2) The default debian config does not make use of any perl checks so
will probably never trigger the segfault. If I add the following stanza
to /etc/nagios2/conf.d/localhost_nagios2.cfg and comment out the p1_file
directive in /etc/nagios2/nagios.cfg then I can make nagios segfault
with the error described in the original bug report after 5-6 minutes.
define service {
use generic-service
host_name localhost
service_description NTP
check_command check_ntp
}
(check_ntp uses a perl based plugin)
HTH.
