It is unacceptable to have to upgrade to newer distro to get rid of this
bug. After all 12.04 is a LTS version and its life time exceeds that of
12.10. 12.04 users will have to live with this bug, or upgrade, which
nullifies the meaning of Long Term Stable version. I ask you to change
the status back to fixing and work on patches.

I know that bug is related to GnuTLS , and it is breaking many apps that rely 
on GnuTLS  for authentication. grive for example :
keeps getting following errors

[gr::expt::MsgTag*] = gnutls_handshake() failed: The Diffie-Hellman prime sent 
by the server is not acceptable (not long enough).
[gr::http::CurlCodeTag*] = 35

It also is related to network environment as GnuTLS works fine with
direct internet connection, but the machine which is having this issue
is behind a proxy connection at my office.
