To summarize the issue. It seems that the programs that failed were
indirectly linked with both libhogweed.so.2 and libhogweed.so.4. The
structure of rsa_public_key on these two libraries, is different, the
size symbol is 64-bits in one and 32-bits on the other. The
libhogweed.4 also contains versioned symbols, whilst the .2 is
unversioned. If gnutls for some reason was calling
the rsa_public_key_prepare of the unversioned library it would explain
the failure Marcelo encountered.

The question if someone wants to dig it further, is why would the
unversioned rsa_public_key_prepare would be called, especially since
gnutls was linked against the versioned library.
