Package: vsftpd
Version: 2.3.0-1
Severity: important

vsftpd is compiled for s390, but broken on this architecture.  The authors
apparently found it a good idea to call syscalls directly in sysdeputil.c.
Sadly this doesn't appear to work for clone() on s390, as eglibc provides
a wrapper for the syscall on this architecture.  Instead the code should
call clone() in a sane way, i.e. reusing the function from eglibc instead
of wrangling the syscalls by itself.

The result of this is vsftpd opening the socket just fine, with the child
segfaulting in eglibc's syscall.S upon a new connection.
