There looks to be more than this wrong with this update. A quick
comparison shows the following changes in the list of files being
installed from do_install:

-./lib/libmemusage.so
-./lib/libnss_hesiod-2.13.so
-./lib/libnss_nisplus-2.13.so

Some of these are rpc related but there are other issues too.

I've reverted the upgrade itself for now until we have something in
place to address the issues and its actually had some testing...

Cheers,
